Even worse, there's no potion that Papa can invent to cure this.Meanwhile, his friends are busy baking, sewing costumes, painting, and preparing for the festival. Can he find inspiration again before the big day?#1 New York Times bestselling author Robb Pearlman beautifully captures how frustrating it feels when inspiration flees, and how rewarding it is to open up to the creativity surrounding us.
