An accidental luggage swap with a witch conjures a series of mishaps for Zahra in this charming magical adventure from acclaimed children’s author Aisha Bushby.

When Zahra accidentally swaps suitcases with a witch, it’s the beginning of a whole series of magical mishaps. Her feet take on a dancing life of their own when she puts on a pair of enchanted boots, while her first flying adventure in a charmed cloak nearly ends in disaster! But it’s not all bad. She learns a spell that can transform her dad’s worst cooking into a gourmet delight and makes a new best friend in the form of a talking cat.

When she finds the witch again, will Zahra even want to get her own suitcase back?!
