The Collectors

Look closely.Do you see that marble in the grass? The tiny astronaut with one arm raised? The old-fashioned key in the gutter? Van sees them. Van notices all sorts of things. But usually no one notices Van. He's small, and he's always the new kid, easy to overlook. Then one day he watches a mysterious girl and a silver squirrel dive into a fountain to steal a coin. And?even more strange?they notice Van. Suddenly, the world changes for Van. It becomes a place where wishes are real. A place where wishes can be collected, just like his little treasures. A place where wishes can come true.But that's not always a good thing. Not all wishes are good, you see, and even good wishes can have unintended consequences.And Van is about to find out just how big those consequences can be.
