Ninni dreams of a bicycle, but her pocket money is only enough for ice cream. She needs to earn some extra cash! But who will hire a nine-year-old girl? Maybe some kind of weirdo… To fulfill her dream, Ninni goes to the "Shop of Nightmares" – a little store that sells monster mops, ghost cages, and other magical things.
The interview turns into the first challenge. It’s not so easy to find the right potion among jars filled with crumbs of reason and bags of mini-dragons! Even the shop owner, Stranno-ded, gets lost here all the time…
The creepy assortment and strange employees of the shop are not scary at all; they are very sweet and charming – thanks to Magdalena Hai, the author of the acclaimed Finnish steampunk novel "The Princess-Pauper", and the artist Teemu Juhani, a big lover of cookies. According to unconfirmed reports, after creating illustrations for "Shop of Nightmares", he prefers a charlotte made of lizard eyeballs.
For younger school age.
