Hush has lots of adventures being invisible but then there comes a time when she wants to be visible again, only Grandma Poss can’t find the spell to bring Hush back. Then Grandma Poss remembers that “it’s something to do with food. People food. Not possum food.”
So begins a adventure around Australia to find the food that will make Hush’s dream come true.
Possum Magic takes us on a whimsical journey to cities around Australia to find the food that makes Hush visible again.
