Author: Nancy Krulik Genre: fantasy/funny Description: This series is about a girl (Katie Carew) who had a bad day and made a wish that she could be anybody but herself, and it came true. From then on, a wind (aka magic wind) has been chasing Katie around and changing her into other people or animals. The first time it came it turned her into Speedy, class 3A's pet hamster. She had to chew on sticks. She somehow escaped from the cage and ended up in George's shoes; Yuck!!!! (George is a classmate). Critique: I like this book because it helps me see things in other people's situation, and it teaches me about science and history. Grades: 2-4
