"Michael Alexander, with his second book for children, Until Wishes Are Fulfilled, has created a world of such wondrous hope, children of all ages will find it difficult to put the book down in favour of any thing else that might distract them, once they have turned to the first page."


"Michael’s descriptive prose and ability to ensnare a readers attention from the off, is a wonderful gift to own. Holly is such a well-rounded character, readers will want to reach into the page and offer her a comforting shoulder on which to cry or a congratulatory hand to slap in high-five celebration.
Yet it is the pace of the story that stands out. Almost Frank Cottrell-Boyce in its ceaselessness, Michael Alexander keeps the plot rolling with delightful dialogue, unexpected twists and a “need to know” hook at the end of each chapter.
This, it has to be said, is a truly special book. Though set at Christmas, When Wishes Are Fulfilled can be read at any time of year and Michael Alexander, following on from Adventures In Cuckoo’s Hollow, shows an assured lightness of touch many others writing in this field will envy."
