Mr. Wish

By Dr. Sheldon C. McAfee and Cory Lampkin Jr.

Some students have no idea about the magic that goes into keeping a school running smoothly. There's lots of planning, prepping, and preparing, but mostly hard work from dedicated individuals that make the happiest, safest, cleanest place possible for students to come to school and learn. Mr. Wish is a tribute to all those hard-working individuals behind the scenes supporting teachers and making the magic happen.

Mr. Wish loves his job. He's doing his part to make the future brighter by cleaning up the messes and straightening up the classrooms. Hence, students and teachers have a wonderful place to teach and learn. Luckily for him, he's got magic on his side, and he'll share his magic with you if you think hard enough and answer his magical riddles. This is a fun story about three siblings, Jay Shay and Stu, and their exciting adventures with the magical janitor.

Dr. Sheldon C. McAfee

Dr. Sheldon C. McAfee has been an educator for 18 years. He’s taught kindergarten through eighth grade and been a principal and assistant principal at the primary, elementary and middle school levels. Dr. McAfee’s love of children’s literature began for him as a child reading Bible stories, Greek mythology, fantasy, and fairy tales. As a student in elementary school, Dr. McAfee learned he had dyslexia. His mother helped him overcome his disability by having him read out loud and write stories of his own. Mr. Wish is Dr. McAfee’s second children’s book. He wrote his first book, Everybody Came to Daddy Chuck’s Funeral, as a tribute to his grandfather, who cared not only for his family but also for his church and community members. “As a teacher, I noticed there’s a paucity of books with magical themes with characters that look like my students. I wrote Mr. Wish, so little Black boys and girls can dream of the impossible happening for them.”
