awesome book

I read this book in fifth grade cause it was on our reading list and we had to do a book report on it, and I aced it and still have the project lying around somewhere. It was the best book I had ever read that time and a lot of things amanda wished for, I did too at the time. My favourite parts were when her room became neat and clean, when she got that horse but was upset to find that the genie stole it from someone to get it to her, and how she became part of a native american legend for inspiration to her class assignment. Also, it was neat how amanda's mother was artistic and constantly going on about horse.

Childhood revisited!

I remember first reading this during my early school years. I went through a period of borrowing the book from my school library continuously for a whole year and reading it at least once a week. It my all time feel-good book! LOVED IT!!

First novel I ever read!

The year was 1985 and I got "Toothpaste Genie" as a bookclub book through school and it was the first non-picutre book I ever read and still remember it. For any little girls who've dreamt of a having a little sister this is the book for you!

A page turner for kids

When I look back to the novels I read as a child, this one comes to mind first. I read this about 20 years ago and still remembered I enjoyed it. What would you do if you could have wishes granted?

A definate must-read!

A normal girl living a normal life suddenly experiences a change in her "normal" lifestyle, whne she encounters a genie. A TOOTHPASTE genie. And she gets what every child wants: any three wishes granted. What could she wish for? Lucky Charm cereal with only the marshmallows, more toys, more generous parents, a baby sister that didn't make the poops, etc., etc... But what do you do when you only have three wishes? Even more of a problem, what do you do when your wishes come true, but aren't exactly what you expect? This book is a definate must-read for all children. It's a mind-relaxer, an excitement-builder, a humour-filled book, perfect for the good read that you need...
