Bigger than a Bread Box by Laurel Snyder

4.0

Rebecca's life is falling apart. Her mother and father have separated, and Rebecca and her little brother Lew are dragged down to their grandmother's house in Georgia with no warning. Rebecca must start all over at a new middle school, part way through the school year. When she finds a magic bread box in her grandmother's attic, she starts wishing for things to make her life better. While her wishes help her fit in to the popular crowd at school, the bread box stays empty as she wishes for ways to fix her family. Soon, though, the repercussions of her wishes begin to catch up with her, and Rebecca must find a way to untangle the web of deception that she has created. A rich and satisfying adventure.
