'Once upon a time, a young witch called Lucy lived on a floating elephant-shaped island called Hocus Pocus . . .

'Hocus Pocus is the most magical place to live in the entire world.  Until it's invaded by a mysterious (and very stinky!) pong.  Nobody knows what to do, so it's up to young witch Lucy and her best friend Joe to find out who or what is responsible . . . ' (Publication abstract)
