![]() ![]() Ophelia is a spunky and courageous character. It's also a lot more dangerous than she thought, but Ophelia is determined to grant a wish even if it means risking being seen by humans and breaking a wing. Ophelia is sure that she will be able to grant this wish easily, but then she gets to the human world and finding the coin is harder than she thought it would be. She must find the coin the wish was made on and then her magic will work to grant a girl a purple bike. She has finally been given a mission to grant her first wish. As a Granter, she must travel beyond the Haven to the human world, and grant whatever wish she has been assigned. In Granted, Ophelia Delphinium Fidgets is a fairy, but also a Granter. I am amazed with authors who are able to write so well across genres and topics. Being a fantasy, Granted is a very different book from Anderson's previous two. It's also relevant in today's world and to the lives of middle graders. The message of the book is an important one. I knew it would be a sad story, but I was surprised by the humor. ![]() John David Anderson became a favorite author of mine after I read Ms. ![]()
