During World War II in England, Charlie, Carrie, and Paul Rawlins are sent to live with Miss Eglantine Price, who, as it turns out, is an apprentice witch. Charlie blackmails her that if he is to keep her practices a secret, she must give him something, so she takes a bedknob from her late fathers brass 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 Professor Emelius Browne, the former headmaster of Miss Prices witchcraft training correspondence school. She 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.
London orphans Charlie, Carrie, and Paul Rawlins are amongst a flood of kids evacuated to country villages. In their case, Pepperinge Eye, where a lack of host families means theyre assigned to loner Miss Eglantine Price "for now". They discover that shes an apprentice witch by correspondence and promise to keep her secret only if allowed to join the fun. Paul is given a spell to make her late fathers brass bed fly them anywhere by means of a magical knob. Unwilling to miss out of the last spell, "Substituary Locomotion", they track down founding Professor Emelius Browne in London. Hes a crook who never believed his spells would work, but he eagerly joins the band in the hunt for the other half of the magic book from which he borrowed, but "modernized". It means flying to the magical "Isle of Naboombu" in search of the powerful Star of Astoroth. Its to be put to use in the war effort, just in time as the Germans land in the coastal town for a terror surprise mini-invasion, only to be fought off by a magical army.
