This is a great book for beginner readers. This book is based off of a show on Nickelodeon so the characters are probably already familiar to young children. Shimmer and Shine are genies that are able to grant their friend, Leah, three wishes a day. It's a great re-telling of an old story of genies where wishes come true. I would place this in the fantasy section of books. Young readers will get excited about their wishes coming true and be interested to read this book with their favorite characters. In the classroom, I would use this for beginning readers to read on their own. The illustrations are engaging and will interest young readers.
