Barbara O'Connor takes readers from a Wish to a Dream in this sweet middle grade novel. This new book revisits the same southern town but centers on a young girls who dreams of being a famous country music song writer. Idalee Lovett lives in a ramshackle rooming house filled with quirky characters. The youngster wants to enter a songwriting contest, but doubts her own talent. she is convinced that she needs a new guitar to write a good song, and teams up with her buddies to search for the rumored treasure her Grandpa had supposedly hidden in the house. Fans of the 2016 "Wish" will enjoy revisiting the characters of Charlie, Howard and Wishbone who help her out, along with her new friend Odell. In the end of this sweet story, Idalee discovers that the true treasures are self-confidence and friendship. This Dream is a companion story to Wish, not a sequel, and can be read as a standalone. The protagonist is only eleven and this middle grade novel is not as serious as many middle grade novels these days. It is appropriate for any youngster. I alternated between advanced copies of the audiobook and the eBook and adored the narration. I had actually requested the audiobook because I fell in love with Suzy Jackson's excellent narration in Christina Dodd's Thus with a Kiss I Die: Daughter of Montague. In this novel she captures the voice of a southern preteen so well, I had forgotten that it was the same actress. No matter what format you enjoy the most, this is a good book, but as a reader who usually prefers text, I can claim that anything narrated by Jackson really is even "better as an audiobook".
