Frigity, the Witch: Flying Broomstick
A budding witch called Frigity attends an enchanted school for promising witches in the mystical land of Flume. Frigity would be the first to admit she is not the most naturally gifted witch student to have stepped into the renowned witch school, but nevertheless, Frigity tries her best.
If truth be known, before aspiring witches don their first witch dress, prior to proudly receiving their pointy black hats, before envisaging their first successful magic spell or before imagining mixing their first potion, every hopeful witch fantasises of the day she takes flight on her very own broomstick.
For a young witch, nothing is more rewarding than to fly high into the sky amongst the fluffy clouds and let the world pass them by far below, BUT NOTE, not all witch broomsticks are made the same! Just like people, each flying broomstick has its own personality. The majority are nice, some are stubborn, a few are nasty and a handful have a wicked sense of humour. Some broomsticks are painfully slow through the air and others are blurringly fast.
The auspicious day had finally arrived when the ebullient witches attending witch school are going to be presented with their long awaited witch brooms. Will Frigity the witch receive the flying broomstick of her dreams or will she be handed her worst nightmare? Throw in a hungry monster who loves to eat witches for breakfast, dinner or supper, Frigity is once again involved in another marvellous adventure.
