Magic Raincoat

"I wish you were a dog," Emily said to her brother, and, just then, he turned into a dog. "I wish I had a million dollars," Emily said, and, just then, two men in black suits showed up at her door and unlocked a briefcase. To Emily's surprise, the orange raincoat that her mother bought her is even better than the yellow one Emily wanted - this raincoat is magical! After learning that she should use her new raincoat only for good causes, the raincoat disappears. "You wanted a yellow one and our neighbors' girl, Mei, wanted an orange one, so I traded with Mei's mother last night," Emily's mother explains. While Emily gains, loses, and tries to recover her magic raincoat, readers will enjoy following her story through fun, spirited prose and detailed ink-and- collage illustrations.
