Living in New York City with her mother and her younger sister, Miri, fourteen-year-old Rachel tries to persuade Miri, who has recently become a witch, to help her become popular at school and to try to stop their divorced father's wedding. What if all your wishes could come true? Blink your eyes, drink a fizzing pink potion, and poof! Life is perfect. That₂s Rachel₂s situation. Except she₂s not the one who suddenly has magical powers. Her younger sister is. And as Rachel would tell you, spellbooks are wasted on the young! Yes, yes, of course world peace and cures for horrible diseases are important. But so is dancing without looking like she₂s being electrocuted, winning back her best friend, stopping her dad₂s wedding, and finding a date for Spring Fling. Rachel₂s not bewitched. Yet. . . . From the Hardcover edition.
