What is Willow supposed to do with a forest? She has inherited one from her great-aunt Alwina, and that’s not all: Alwina has also left Willow a small, lopsided cottage and her powers as a witch. But does Willow really want to accept this inheritance, with everything that comes with it? On top of that, she has to find three girls who also carry the gift of witchcraft within them and, together with them, save the forest. But where? And, more importantly, how? Luckily, Willow is not alone: Rufus the fox won’t leave her side. Based on the children’s novel “Ein Mädchen namens Willow” by Sabine Bohlmann.
