From the publisher

It is Olivia’s birthday, and when she blows out the candles on her cake and makes a wish, she gets exactly what she wanted–SNOW, SNOW, and MORE SNOW, even though it’s summertime. All that snow leads to too much trouble, though, so Olivia’s parents bake her another cake so she can make a new wish that will get rid of it. But when that wish, and the next one, and the next one lead to even more trouble what will Olivia do to solve it? Wait and see! A new look for the Classic Munsch picture books brings all of the hyperbolic fun of Wait and See to a new generation of young readers.
