A wishing well in Bishop allows every person who lives there one wish per lifetime. Few even dare to try because often, these wishes go wrong. After Nuria makes a wish to put her inside Catty's body, can things ever be put right again? |
| Synopsis: |
One wish for a lifetime... In the village of Bishop Mayne there is a magical Wishing Well where a person may make one wish in a lifetime. But the Well can create problems for those who use its power, for wishes often go wrong. It was just such a wish that took all the children in the town away. Only eleven-year-old Nuria, who lives with her grandfather up on the mountain, remains. Then one child returns -- Catty Winter. Catty's legs are mysteriously crippled, and Catty desperately wants Nuria to make a wish so she can walk again. Nuria swears she will make the wish for her friend. But the Well has a mind of its own. What if Nuria's wish qoes wrong? |
