Reading this made me feel a little wistful because my son used to love watching Fairly Oddparents.

A poorly written adaptation of a great episode of The Fairly Oddparents.
Timmy and his friends need tickets for "Crash Nebula on Ice", so Cosmo decides to make magical lemonade that make any wish come true, so of course millions of people buy. However, soon wishes go too far when a dragon attacks Dimmsdale.
I loved Fairly Oddparents as a kid and I remember this episode quite well. A kind of disappointment to see that somebody kinda ruined the episode and took some parts out. I know it's intended for kids, so it's 3 stars for me.

With fairies by his side Timmy Turner can usually wish for anything he wants. But when he wants tickets to a show that is sold out he must now find another way to get the money to buy the tickets for him and his 2 friends. But what happens when Timmy uses fairy sweat to make his lemonade?

Can be used in a classroom to teach about responsibility and getting what you want the right and honest way.

I thought this was kinda gross, but my daughter was riveted. The dr's waiting room could really use some better books.

It was funny when he said "I wish everything whent back the way it was" and he ended up with no money
