I read Half Magic as an adult and liked it! But then, I'm pretty sure I ponder Wish Management strategies at least once a week. If we lived somewhere a little more magical I'd want to be a Wish Lawyer.
Dahl does seem like a good follow-up: Magic Finger has curses instead of wishes, and the entirety of James and the Giant Peach is an "after the magic plan went wrong" story.

Happy that your kids found the right book! :)
