"A gentle story of magic-tinged independence."—The Wall Street Journal
Half-witch Kiki never runs from a challenge. So when her thirteenth birthday arrives, she's eager to follow a witch's tradition: choose a new town to call home for one year.
Brimming with confidence, Kiki flies to the seaside village of Koriko and expects that her powers will easily bring happiness to the townspeople. But gaining the trust of the locals is trickier than she expected. With her faithful, wise-cracking black cat, Jiji, by her side, Kiki forges new friendships and builds her inner strength, ultimately realizing that magic can be found in even the most ordinary places.
Blending fantasy with the charm of everyday life, this enchanting new translation will inspire both new readers and dedicated fans.

Amazing
It was such a good book! I love how it wasn’t super fast paced like a lot of books. I also really enjoyed reading about Kiki’s little adventure, just about a girl finding her place in the world. Definitely one of my all time favorites. It makes me feel like I’m in a small cafe by the seaside listening to music. 10000/10
