From the Publisher
"In this sequel to "Don't Call Me Beanhead!" (1994), Bernice Lorraine Sherwin-Hendricks (Beany for short) discovers something unique--a crystal from an old chandelier that might be magic and good for one wish. She almost uses the wish several times before finally deciding to use the crystal to guarantee a perfect birthday party. When she pops in on her elderly next-door neighbor to borrow tomato paste for the party spaghetti, she learns that this day would've been Mrs. Kasper and her late husband's 53rd wedding anniversary. Beany promptly gives her the crystal to help her learn to be happy without him and invites her to the party. After the celebration is a big success, Beany knows that the crystal really is magic. . . . Grades two to four." (SLJ)
