In this poignant novel in verse, eleven-year-old Jack misses his dad who is MIA in Vietnam. The last thing Jack wants to do is spend summer with his grandparents.

He's expecting the worst summer of his life--until he meets Jill. Things change as it becomes a summer of fishing, camping, bullies, and a fish who grants wishes. A fish that could be the answer to Jack's problem. But when Jill makes wishes of her own, things don't turn out the way they expected. Every wish has a consequence.

Will the fish grant Jack's biggest wish? Will Jack be brave enough to ask?
