There once was a boy who worked for a magician. He cleaned and cooked for him, but what he really wanted was to learn magic. The magician always told him that he wasn't ready. His favorite job was performing the puppet show, 'St. George and the Dragon,' when the magician performed. One horrible day, the St. George puppet went missing in the middle of a very important performance. The magician then sent the boy into Storyland to find him. The boy meets The Old Woman in the Shoe, Jack of the beanstalk, and Little Red Riding Hood, but will he find St. George in time, and prove that he is, indeed, ready to learn magic?
