From award-winning author Julie Berry comes a brand new middle-grade fantasy adventure full of humor and heart, exclusively from Audible.

Maeve Merritt chafes at the rigid rules at her London boarding school for “Upright Young Ladies.” When punishment forces her to sort through the trash, she finds a sardine tin that houses a foul-tempered djinni with no intention of submitting to a schoolgirl as his master.

Soon an orphan boy from the charitable home next door, a mysterious tall man in ginger whiskers, a disgruntled school worker, and a take-no-prisoners business tycoon are in hot pursuit of Maeve and her magical discovery. It’ll take all of her quick thinking and sass to set matters right. Maeve Merritt is one feisty heroine you won’t soon forget.

Julie Berry lives near Los Angeles with her family. The Scandalous Sisterhood of Prickwillow Place is an Odyssey Honor Audiobook, and The Passion of Dolssa is a Printz Honor Title.

A thrilling story!

This was such a refreshing and interesting story. The main character was well developed and interesting and the genie was was just as I would expect a genie to be. The narration was pleasant and added to the overall story. I could not stop listening

Listened as free audible’s original as a part of membership. Not a typical listen for me by any means but as I am burning through my membership credits I needed to take it vantage of the two free originals each month. I was more than pleasantly surprised with this one, it kept me captivated and entertained. Most enjoyable listen and would have been worth the use if a credit or actual purchase. Nice selection Audibles!!

Wishes and Wellingtons is a lovely, touching, exciting story with loveable characters, an intriguing sense of history, fun twists and tons of charm. The narrator is splendid. The story is devine. It's family friendly--I'd say school-age and up. (Tiny tots may find one part a little scary.) We will listen to this one again and again.

A whirlwind of fun
