Book Description

Born in the Ukraine, adopted by a multi-national family in the United States and logging more miles than FedEx by the time he was five, Matthew Broadley has always been a child of the world. So when the idea surfaced that would send him on a mission to meet and interview 1,000 people and write and publish a book about it by the time he was 16...it sounded about right! It took him three years, but he gathered 1,000 Wishes from all 50 states and over 60 countries. From age two to age 102, all walks of life are represented in these pages -- united in one place and through one teenage boy.
