The Wishing Well

內容簡介

內容簡介 In this emotionally rich story from New York Times bestselling author Gideon Sterer and award-winning illustrator Emily Hughes, a monster trapped at the bottom of a wishing well plots his escape, reminding us that true wealth is measured not in coins but in love, freedom, and the beauty of nature. Plip! Plop! Plip! The coins of every wisher fall down, down, down into the well, and at the bottom is a monster who must count them all. He longs to venture into the world and dreams of the day that might leave the well and become the richest monster. His lonely plight--and daring escape--will have readers reconsider their wildest wishes and embrace the beauty and wonder of all they take for granted. Wishing Well is the perfect read for fans of Jon Klassen's modern fables.
