About this eBook

Be very, very careful what you wish for in this ninth book in the Spooksville series New York Times bestselling author Christopher Pike.

While hiking in the woods near Spooksville, Adam and his friends find a cube-shaped stone. It is clear, like a crystal, and seems to shine with colored light. To their surprise, they discover that if they hold it and make a wish for something, the wish will come true!

They call it the Wishing Stone. And they love it. Until they discover that there is a price to be paid for each wish…and that the price can be deadly.

Ratings and reviews

This is my second book to read from this series. Unfortunately i didnt own it. It was back in 2nd year hs.. i always go to the library during lunch time to read this and a good way not to get hungry since i never had enough money to eat both breakfast and lunch daily. Its either bf or lunch so i choose bf since its less time and lunchtime give me more time to read this. . Also if u had watched the series.. this book has more in depth and added story. The tv series gave at least a tenth of the series content maybe less. They also removed the best parts in the tv series.
