This stunningly illustrated tale abounding in magic follows Felix whose apprenticeship has him fighting for the hopes and dreams of his community, as a vicious wishsnatcher tyrannises the town.

'Wanted! A wishkeeper's apprentice.'

When Felix makes a very special wish, he doesn't expect to be offered a job as an apprentice to wishkeeper Rupus Beewinkle. Now Felix must save the town's wishes from the wishsnatcher, who wants to destroy hopes and dreams everywhere.
