Reminiscent of old-time radio drama. A fun performance by a full cast.
Life is rough for Jackson, who anticipates with dread moving up to middle school. Until his grandfather makes a wish for him ... and suddenly he's living fifth grade over and over again. Which is fine for a while, since he knows all the answers in school, and he's able to improve in baseball and trumpet playing.
But there's the problem of all his friends leaving him behind, as they grow up and move on in life ... and forgetting him. Every new school year, everybody else's reality and their memories of him get re-set. What's a kid to do to get unstuck, and move on with his life again? Every time Jackson figures out how to re-wish and fix the problem, it doesn't work.
Jackson has to learn some important lessons about life in general, and himself in particular, before his answer comes and he gets his own re-set.
Clever!
