Things and when it closes, she sprinkles magic glitter on the
occupants and they come to life. You will meet characters such as

sprinkles him with her glitter he instantly cheers up and starts to
sing and dance. Mollie, the Bear is very brave and loves the smell
of honey, but she has never tasted it because she is a toy bear.
When she is sprinkled with the glitter, she can also taste the
lovely treat. Amy, the Dustpan Dolly is old and broken, Pat gives
her some new straw and she is good as new. When Clare sprinkles her
with the glitter she instantly becomes busy and rushes around the
shop collecting all of the crumbs on the way. And the star
attraction is Tommy, the pencil who draws beautiful rainbows on
every book in the shop. Pat and the mice are amazed by all of the
magic that happens at the shop and you will be too. Come along and
