We asked Sophia how Make-A-Wish had first started．She said it had all begun with a very sick young boy called Chris，who had dreamed for a long time of becoming a policeman．Sophia said lots of people had wanted to find a way to make Chris's dream come true--so，with everybody's help，Chris，only seven years old at the time，had been a"policeman"for a day．"When people saw how delighted Chris was when his dream came true，they decided to try and help other sick children too，and that was the beginning of Make-A-Wish，"explained Sophia．
