People have been wishing their lives away for centuries. From four-leaf clovers to one-eyed cats, in fact on anything under the full moon, wishing on the world around us seems to be an integral part of our lives. Here, the wish bone is connected to the funny bone in a wildly imaginative look at sky wishes, food wishes, driving wishes and more. Illustrated throughout, David Greer's book guides you through the etiquette of spitting over shoulders, what to do with lost teeth, spilled salt, double-yolk eggs, and black cats, and explains to you why you shoulder never, EVER look back at a hay truck.
