One Wish tells the story of Fakye, a nine year old girl living in Kumawu, whose heart becomes heavy as she begins to notice the pain, division, and quiet suffering in the world around her. While others prepare for the New Year with excitement and wishes for personal gain, Fakye feels drawn toward deeper questions. Why is there so much unrest when there is so much to share Why does peace feel so fragile
Her search for understanding leads her on an unexpected walk through a familiar park, where she meets a mysterious old woman. Through gentle conversation and shared moments, the woman teaches Fakye how to see differently. Not through grand speeches or quick solutions, but through attention, compassion, and small acts of kindness. Together they encounter ordinary people carrying unseen burdens, and Fakye learns that peace does not begin with power, but with presence.
As Fakye brings these lessons into her home, her friendships, and her daily life, she discovers that choosing to care is not always easy. It brings resistance, fatigue, and doubt. Yet it also brings clarity, purpose, and quiet strength. Her New Year wish becomes more than words. It becomes a way of living.
Written in lyrical and reflective prose, One Wish is a timeless story for children, young readers, and adults alike. It reminds us that light does not arrive loudly, and that even the smallest acts of love can shape the world in lasting ways
