A classic tale, Anthony Browne style, has arrived! This is a story about a supernatural being who promises to grant three wishes—wishes that end up being wasted through silly slips of the tongue and squabbles. This familiar story you may have heard before is none other than the world-famous 'Three Wishes,' a classic tale by the Brothers Grimm. Anthony Browne, the magician of storytelling who captivates readers with his creative and fresh interpretations every time, now presents his own unique take on this beloved classic. What wishes will the children ask the fairy for? And what will become of the giant banana? Familiar yet full of a charm all its own that sets it apart from the original, this 'Anthony Browne style' story comes to find its readers. On an ordinary day when everything seemed boring, something amazing suddenly happened. Lambert, Hilda, and Ross were watching television. Then, all of a sudden, a blue fairy appeared out of the TV! Stepping out of the television, the fairy looked straight at the three children and said, 'I will grant you three wishes. Just say the word for anything you want. But choose your wishes very carefully.' As soon as the fairy finished speaking, it vanished. Wishes! And three of them, no less? The children were thrilled by their sudden good fortune. In the midst of their excitement, Lambert muttered without thinking, 'I'm a little hungry, though. I wish I had a giant banana to munch on while I think.' And suddenly, a big—no, an enormously big—banana appeared out of nowhere! And just like that, the three friends had used up one wish in the silliest way. Now only two wishes remained. What will the other two wishes turn out to be? Anthony Browne invites you to a whimsical yet thought-provoking theater of storytelling.
