The Magic Pawnshop

A New Years Eve Fantasy

Beschreibung

"A Small Supply of Magic on Hand For Regular Customers," is what the gold-lettering on the pawnshop's placard reads. Both excited by this advertisement and in desperate need of a miracle cure for her uncle, nine-year-old Prinda Bassett proceeds in-unknowingly setting herself up for a fantastically eccentric New Years' Eve.
