A heartfelt journey filled with hope, imagination, and the magic of wishes! It’s Carmela’s birthday, and she’s finally old enough to tag along on errands with her older brother. When she discovers a lone dandelion sprouting from the sidewalk, a simple outing becomes a whirlwind of dreams and possibilities. Poetic, playful, and brimming with heart, Carmela Full of Wishes is a moving celebration of growing up, speaking out, and holding on to what matters most.
