In this story magic happens, and dreams come true. This is a heartwarming nature series about a little boy, who longs for a dog of his own, and an elderly man, who is forced to give up his beloved pet. Johnny moves from the desert of West Texas to the West Coast fishing village, Fort Bragg, California, and has to leave behind dear friends and his only pet a horned toad. Just up the road from Johnny’s new home, he discovers a scary looking dilapidated house. There he finds an elderly, grumpy man, who has a dog named Trouble. The man tries to scare Johnny away, but Johnny does not scare easily. Later, Johnny goes back to visit the elderly man and realizes something is very wrong. The man’s dog is straining against it's chain, and barking wildly at the house. Much later in the series, Hazel, one of Johnny's new friends, makes a wish for the first time ever on Thanksgiving Day, with her mother using a magic wishbone. She refuses to say what she wished for, and insists that the magic needs time to happen, although she doesn’t understand exactly how magic works. This series is about friendships and difficult decisions. It is also about family, and how hard it is to move away from dear friends. Step into Johnny’s world and follow him on his adventures, where the wildlife and scenery comes vividly alive. This series is packed with action and drama, but most of all, it about people caring about and for one another. In this series you will find horned toads, rattlesnakes, raccoons, birds, ponies, fish and a slug, which are all a good mix for children with inquisitive minds.
