It all starts when a teeny, tiny cleaning spell goes wildly wrong. Hattie discovers that this time her problem cannot be solved with magic. It requires something else, but what exactly? Thus, with a broom in hand and determination in her heart, she learns that true magic lies in not being afraid of failing and trying again.

Here is the story blurb and the character introduction pieces.
Hattie is a little witch’s hat with BIG magical dreams! But every time she tries a spell, her hat goes FLOP and the magic fizzles with a POP. When she attempts to tidy her sister’s room with a single, spectacular spell, it goes hilariously astray. Suddenly, the room is overrun with a multiplying mess of grumpy gnomes, sleepy dragons, and a puzzling forest of… artichokes?!
With the chaotic clutter growing out of control, more spells just won’t work. Can Hattie discover that the most powerful magic isn’t in a wand, but in a simple, humble broom? A charming tale about perseverance, cleaning up your own messes, and finding the magic in trying again.
Character Introduction
Hattie isn't your ordinary witch, she's the hat! Full of enthusiasm and a deep desire to be just like her big sister, Hattie's magical attempts are often foiled by a floppy hat and fumbling fingers. But don't let her clumsy spells fool you; Hattie has a heart full of determination and a willingness to try, try again. She's about to learn that her greatest magic was inside her all along... it just wasn't the kind she expected.
Sister the Witch
Clever, tall, and endlessly patient, Hattie’s big sister is everything a young witch aspires to be. She stirs potions, tells stories of witches of old, and knows that true magic isn’t about instant perfection. With a soft, knowing smile, she guides Hattie to discover her own strengths, proving that the best sisters aren’t just teachers, they’re believers.
The Multiplying Mess Itself
What starts as a simple clutter of toys becomes a magical catastrophe! When Hattie’s spell backfires, it doesn’t just make a mess, it makes more mess. This isn’t your ordinary cleanup job; it’s a growing, grumbling, snoring obstacle course of epic proportions!
The Prickly, Green Mystery
Why artichokes?
That’s the question! When Hattie’s spell backfired, it didn’t just multiply the toy, it conjured prickly, perplexing artichokes too. They’re green, they’re everywhere, and they are definitely NOT Hattie’s favorite vegetable. Some magical mysteries are better off swept away!

The Grumpy Gnomes
Once a single garden gnome, now a whole battalion of them! These little figures with big attitudes aren’t helping. They grumble “GRUMPH!” and refuse to budge, becoming prickly, immovable roadblocks in Hattie’s path.
The Sleepy Dragons
Cozy?
Yes. Helpful? Not at all.
These multiplied dragons are more interested in napping than causing havoc, but their snoozing bodies are very much in the way. Trying to clean around them requires a gentle touch and a lot of “Pardon me’s!”
