Synopsis
of Once Upon a Witch's Death
On her
seventeenth birthday, apprentice witch Meg learns she has only one year to
live. Her master, the long-lived wizard Faust, explains that the only way to
undo the curse of death is to collect tears of joy and cultivate the seed of
life. To find them, Meg will have to leave the sheltered life she has always
known and step into the world. There will be meetings, disagreements,
friendships, and of course, lots of tears. Meg will learn that the most
important lessons for a witch are bright, sweet, and a little heartbreaking.
