A charmingly illustrated rhyming story about Sophie, a kind and
friendly witch and the whizziest wizard who happens along one sunny
day. A delightful tale for Halloween night (or any other) of
witches and wizards ...a 'treat' not a fright! Ideal for younger
'readers' who might be just a little bit scared of the other
witches they have met.
Sometimes all you need is a pinch of magic... Eva Evergreen is
determined to earn the rank of Adept Witch before she turns
thirteen years old. If she doesn't, she'll lose her magic forever.
For most young witches and wizards, it's a simple enough test: ONE:
Help your town, do good all around. TWO: Live there for one moon,
don't leave too soon. THREE: Fly home by broomstick, the easiest of
tricks. The only problem? Eva only has a pinch of magic. She
summons heads of cabbage instead of flowers and gets a sunburn
instead of calling down rain. And to add insult to injury, whenever
she overuses her magic, she falls asleep. When she lands on the
tranquil coastal town of Auteri, the residents expect a powerful
witch, not a semi-magical girl. So Eva comes up with a plan: set up
a magical repair shop to aid Auteri and prove she's worthy. She may
have more blood than magic, but her "semi-magical fixes" repair the
lives of the townspeople in ways they never could have imagined.
Only, Eva's bit of magic may not be enough when the biggest magical
storm in history threatens the town she's grown to love. Eva must
conjure up all of the magic, bravery, and cleverness she can muster
or Auteri and her dreams of becoming a witch will wash away with
the storm.
