Dandelion Magic

Ages 3 to 5, Grades K And Under

Close your eyes, make a wish, and blow up a storm with this interactive, imaginative adventure for fans of Press Here.

Jonah’s nana has always told him that some dandelions are magical and can grant wishes. When a wish turns Jonah into a pirate, it’s up to the reader to help him navigate the choppy waters and all the great monsters he meets by blowing the wind, making faces, and doing raspberries.
