Bottle Imp of Bright House

School vacation for a year. Eternal happiness. If you knew your greatest wish would come true, but only at the expense of someone else, would you still make it? That's the catch thirteen-year-old Gabe Silver faces in this delightfully funny middle grade novel. When a mysterious millionaire sells Gabe a bottle containing a wish-granting imp there's just one caveat: any time Gabe makes a wish, someone else, somewhere, is going to lose something--maybe something big. That means each of Gabe's wishes should be an ethical dilemma--but as he scores a Ferrari, a hot tub, and all the pizza and sub sandwiches a kid could want, he's certain a guilty conscience is worth it...isn't it? This thought-provoking book, inspired by a Robert Louis Stevenson novella, is pithy, dark, and very, very funny. References to Robert Louis Stevenson's work is peppered throughout the narrative for readers to discover, while Gris Grimly's bold artwork brings the story to life.
