What to expect
Join Kiki, the beloved young witch, and her clever cat Jiji in the enchanting sequel to the modern classic!
This new translation will reveal more to the story that inspired the Hiyao Miyazaki film, Kiki's Delivery Service.
It has been a year since Kiki started her new life as an honest-to-goodness witch, and the - not quite so - little courier has become a real celebrity.
But fame comes with its own set of challenges. As Kiki faces increasingly perilous tasks, her friendships with Jiji and Tombo are put to the test. Doubts creep in, leading her to question her purpose.
Determined to overcome her fears, Kiki must summon all her courage and perhaps even explore a new kind of magic. Will she find the strength to navigate her evolving world?
Kiki and the New Magic is a captivating tale of bravery, friendship, and self-discovery. Perfect for fans of the Studio Ghibli film and anyone who loves a magical adventure.
