Synopsis: Three siblings gain a present from a witch in training and have numerous adventures including getting locked up in a jail in London, escaping from cannibals on a tropical island and even going back in time to converse with a 17th century necromancer.
Thoughts: The movie is one of my all time favorite Disney movies and so when I found the book outside of Shaw’s, I was very excited. I ended up reading it on the bus to Providence one day. I did really enjoy it but it’s just totally different from the movie. They took the basic idea and just switched and jumbled everything. I still did enjoy it, it was just weird getting used to the new story.
