Soar into this modern Japanese classic about a young witch and her clever cat with this new translation which will delight fans of the beloved Studio Ghibli movie as well as new readers.

Kiki is a trainee witch. On her thirteenth birthday she must follow tradition and leave home to find a new village. She knows she has to use only her powers to make a living, but Kiki's no good at potions or spells...can she use her flying abilities to make her own way in the world? She sets out with her beloved black cat Jiji on an exciting journey, making new friends along the way.

This magical translation, by Emily Balistrieri, of Eiko Kadono's classic tale Kiki's Delivery Service will enchant fans of the beloved Studio Ghibli film (now on Netflix) and new readers alike.
