Willow
A young wizard with more books than spells.
Willow studies hard and improvises harder. Her magic is unpredictable, but her determination never is.
A spell for the books
Willow wanted her books to arrange themselves by subject. She studied the spell, waved a hand and said the magic words. The books flew from the shelves and formed a neat tower in the middle of the room. Every subject was in it. None was easy to reach.
She tried a second spell. The tower slowly rotated. “That's an improvement,” said Willow, stepping aside as a cookbook passed her nose.
Professor Mott arrived and suggested sorting them by hand. Together they made piles for stories, stars and recipes. Willow found three books she had forgotten she owned and one sandwich she had forgotten she packed.
By sunset, the shelves were tidy. Willow wrote a note in her spellbook: MAGIC IS USEFUL. FRIENDS ARE BETTER AT ALPHABETICAL ORDER. She kept the sandwich for later.
