The Birthday Wish by Hilary Mckay
Simon has been dreading going back to school after the summer holidays. Not even his birthday can cheer him up. Ever since his parents disappeared when he was six weeks old he has been making birthday wishes. Now, with a new teacher taking over class 4b perhaps school will be a bit more fun. And perhaps one of his wishes might even come true...
Hilary McKay won the Guardian Children's Award with her first novel, The Exiles. Her subsequent work has achieved similar recognition - The Exiles at Home won the Smarties Prize and Saffy's Angel won the Whitbread. A graduate of Botany and Zoology from St Andrews University, Hilary now writes full-time. She lives in Derbyshire with her husband and two children.
