During WWII in England, Charlie, Carrie, and Paul Rawlins are sent to live with Eglantine Price. who it turns out is an apprentice witch. Charlie blackmails Miss Price that if he is to keep her practices secret, she must give him something, so she takes a bed knob from her late father’s bed and places the “famous magic travelling spell” on it, and only Paul can activate it.
Their first journey is to a street in London where they meet Emelius Browne, former headmaster of Miss Price’s witchcraft training correspondence school. Miss Price tells him of a plan to find the magic words for a spell known as Substitutiary Locomotion, which brings inanimate objects to life. This spell will be her work for the war effort.
