(Blue Bog Press Jan. 16, 2013)
Winner of the Mom's Choice Awards Gold Medal. This is a story that will tickle your funny-bone and touch your heart. "Gently inspiring prose in the style of Charlotte's Web," raves The Midwest Book Review. "A touching tale with kindness, empathy, and courage." "Delightful." "Unforgettable."
"Amiable traveling companions" take you on "a journey with considerable suspense," writes Publisher Weekly. "All the right elements for an epic read-aloud adventure," says Seattle Child's Magazine.
Horatio has lived alone as long as he can remember. His only friend is a river otter named Rollic, who visits him nearly every day. But when Rollic goes missing, Horatio knows he must try to find him. With the help of hamster twins, Whisklet and Whimser, Horatio embarks on an adventure beyond anything he could have dreamed. Along the way, Horatio meets Leala, a champion archer from the hedgehog village--a village Horatio never knew existed. Leala opens a door to a home Horatio has yearned for all his life. Will Horatio continue on and risk his life to rescue his friend or will he follow Leala back to his long-lost home?
Enter a world full of magic and mystery, of woodland creatures and strange beasts. Horatio's One Wish is a humorous and heartwarming story that shows what true friendship means.
