synopsis

A bee’s a man’s best friend in this loose adaptation of Stockton’s tale. Sophia, a junior sorceress, must find a subject to transform to get her Sorcery Girls merit badge and sets her sights on her eccentric neighbor, the Bee-Man (aptly named as he spends his life in the company of his bees). The only trouble? He’s happy the way he is! Sophia sets out on a mission to change that, and to change him... only to find that maybe she is the one who needs to change.
