Everyday Magic

The Adventures of Alfie Blackstack

By: Jess Kidd

Narrated by: Chris Devon

Welcome to Little Snoddington, where nothing is normal and every day is magic....

Nine-year-old Alfie Blackstack’s parents have met a very unfortunate end. Now he’s living in the dark and cobwebby Switherbroom Hall with his mad-haired Aunt Gertie and warty Aunt Zita, who would really like to pickle him. Before long, Alfie realises his aunts aren’t just the weird local chemists, they’re witches!
