Half Magic by Edward Eager

Description: Mark, Jane, Kathrine, and Martha are four ordinary children. Their mother is single, and they have a mean babysitter. One day Jane finds a coin. She puts it in her pocket and thinks nothing of it. Then, when the siblings are really bored, she wishes for a fire. Suddenly firetrucks are wizzing by. They find out that there had been a small fire. It takes them awhile to figure out that the coin gives you half of what you wish for. What happens when it ends up in the hands of their mother? Or when they end up in the desert? Or when their in the mid-evil ages? Or when their cat starts to talk!?
