Why Wish scores this way

A teen girl on a magical island confronts the kingdom's powerful sorcerer-king, who hoards his subjects' wishes, with help from a wishing star come to life. Bright animation and original songs with gentle whimsy; the villain's growing menace and magical threats provide moderate peril suitable for most kids.
