Marten doesn't believe in the power of wishes. None of his have ever come true. His parents ignore him, his little brother is a pain and his family is talking about moving to Texas. Not cool. So when he makes an impulsive wish during a meteor shower, he doesn't expect it to make any difference.

Until his annoying brother disappears.

With the present uncertain and his brother’s future in limbo, Marten finds himself stuck in his past. And if he runs out of time, even wishes might not be enough to save the ones he loves.

Praise for WISH YOU WEREN'T:
"If you're looking for the same old formula middle grade fantasy, this isn't it. Wish You Weren't is magically real. You wouldn't be surprised if you met Marten in "real" life, but what he encounters in this story is pure magic."
– VALERIE HOBBS, award-winning author of Wolf, Sheep and Minnie McClary Speaks Her Mind

"Wish You Weren't is a sweet story about the blessings of family contained within the rip-roaring roller coaster of time travel. It is a page turner that kids are going to love!" – KATIE D. ANDERSON, bestselling author of Kiss & Makeup

"I love all the science details mixed with fantasy in Wish You Weren't – just the kinds of flights-of-science-fancy I wish I had as child!" – SUSAN KAYE QUINN, bestselling author of the Mindjack Trilogy, Faery Swap and Third Daughter

"Fun and accessible, rich with realism and heart, this magical adventure reminds us of the things truly worth wishing for." – CASEY McCORMICK, literary agent intern and blogger at Literary Rambles
