The First Wish It’s Rafi’s seventh birthday, and in her family of Wishing Wizards, that means she’s finally old enough to receive her very own wishing wand. With her dads, Dash and Jake, Rafi learns the three important rules of wishing: you can only make one wish a day, wishes always run out and you can’t unwish a wish. As Rafi holds her wand for the first time, she realises the possibilities are endless - and a little bit magical. Rafi’s birthday marks the beginning of a whole new chapter as she prepares to discover what it really means to be a wishing wizard. |

The Bouncy Wish Rafi loves bouncing on the trampoline and wishes she could do it all day. Her feet become bouncy, and it's brilliant at first, until she realises that bouncing everywhere makes simple jobs tricky. Rafi doesn’t want any help, but soon she sees that bouncing all the time isn’t as fun as she thought. With her dads' support, she realises it’s okay to ask for help. Together, they share pancakes, laughter and a big upside-down hug. |
