What Mona Wants, Mona Gets (Walker Stories)

Product Description
One of an innovative new series of linked stories designed to build reader confidence. When a strange old lady offers her a necklace, Mona realizes that the magic item will grant her every wish. That night she dreams about all the things she has ever wanted, and wakes to find them all crowding her room. So much so that when her mother calls her to Grandad’s party, Mona can’t get out! In a panic Mona rips the necklace off, and vows never to want what she can’t have again. Walker Stories support beginner readers making the transition from picture books in an engaging, entertaining and accessible way. Each title features three highly-illustrated, individual short stories linked by one character, so readers can build familiarity and confidence.
