Plot

Henry Wiggins is the third oldest of five children. When he was just five years old, Henry discovered that eating his mother's mushy carrots gave him the ability to make wishes come true. Once eaten, Henry can make one wish come true. However, being only eight years old, his unusual wishes are often played out with unexpected consequences and his insatiable curiosity invariably spells disaster, but Henry also learns some of life's lessons along the way.
Henry shares his secret and misadventures with his best friend Fraidy Begonia, his faithful pet dog Margaret, and Doris, a dragon who lives in Henry's closet. Other characters in the show include Henry's Uncle Neptune, Ms. Pierre, Henry's teacher and the anti-hero Darwin, an overweight bully who sometimes teases and picks on Henry.
