More DescriptionMary's dad wants to be rich. Mary's mom wants to live in a better house. The principal of her school wants to retire, and her teacher wants to be her new principal. Like all of the other grown-ups in the little girl's life, they spend their time wishing for things that they believe will leave them feeling completely satisfied.
