About this episode

Calla attempts to retrieve a stolen bell from a witch by making a deal to find her missing cat.

Calla has a plan to steal the bell back from the witch. It is not a great plan. She sneaks into the witch's shack in Ashwood Forest, finds the bell on a shelf — and gets caught immediately. The witch is not angry exactly, but she is not the forgiving type either. Calla plays the one card she has: she knows where the witch's missing cat has been disappearing to. The witch goes very still. A deal is struck — find Sable the cat and bring her back, and the bell is yours. Now Calla has a much bigger problem than she started with. Great screen-free entertainment for kids ages 6-11 during car rides and bedtime listening.
