nWhen is magic not magic? Laura is a girl who goes out of her way to find adventure. So when her family moves to a house with a well in the yard--a wishing well, according to Lydia, Lauras opinionated new neighbor--Laura is all too willing to make a wish and see what happens. Plenty happens. Thanks to the well, Laura and her new friends help save Miss Isabellas house from foreclosure, rescue the almost long-lost heir to a fortune, and even solve the mystery of the antique desk. But is the well truly granting wishes? Or is something else responsible for the adventures of that summer?
