Janie Gets a Genie for Christmas — David Blaze

Age Level: 8 and up | Grade Level: 3rd and up

My name is Janie Jenkins and I'm the shyest eleven-year-old girl I know. I've always wanted to fit in with the popular girls, but they told me that I'll never be like them. All of that's about to change. I'm getting my very own genie for Christmas - and three wishes! Santa warned me to be careful what I wish for...because I might get it.

Janie Gets a Genie for Christmas is a magical fantasy for children, and an enjoyable read for reluctant readers. Micah the child Genie teaches that it doesn't matter what you look like or how old you are. It doesn't matter how many friends you have or what kind of clothes you wear. We can always find a way to be happy.
