Nico and the Wish Fairy

A heartwarming middle grade graphic novel set in the lush Florida Everglades about fairies, friendship, forgiveness, and learning that life doesn't have to stay the same to be wonderful.

What if one wish could bring the family back together?

Ten-year old Nico Rodriguez knows exactly what he'd wish for: to undo his parents' divorce and keep them together. Spending the summer in the Florida Everglades with Dad was supposed to be fun for him and older sister, Jace, but nothing feels like it used to.

Then Nico hears a local legend: build a fairy a house, and they will grant you one big wish. Determined to fix his family, Nico sets out to build the best fairy house ever—when he meets Gata, a sarcastic young fairy who is hiding troubles of her own. As their friendship grows, Nico is drawn into a secret world of fairies, flying pythons, and unexpected adventures deep in the swamp. Eventually, Nico has to decide whether holding on to the past is worth missing the people and memories waiting for him right now.
