My Review

“It’s not really important what color your dress is. What matters is the heart inside.”

Witch stories are some of my favorite things to read. They say that you read what you know, so….

I’ve seen the Studio Ghibli movie quite some time ago but I’ll always remember it. I watched it during a time in my life where I needed a pick me up and it did just that. So reading the book meant so much more to me.

I just adore Kiki’s tale. Her story is so cute and sweet. Kiki is just a wholesome character who just wants to help where needed. 🥰 This is a book that I wish I had as a kid.

Kiki’s Delivery Service is a book that I absolutely adore. I loved reading the story of her parents and learning more about the history of Witches magic. Plus Kiki and Jiji are super adorable. I just love it!!
