Misha is not feeling well. She has a high fever and a little problem: she doesn’t want to take the medicine, because it tastes really bad. Her grandfather brings her a book to read while she rests in bed. As she reads the book, she enters into the story. Suddenly she finds herself in a faraway place and doesn’t know how to get home. A witch tells hers that in order to be able to go home she’ll have to make and drink a horrible potion. Throughout the story she comes across different characters (they are her friends, in disguise). The potion she has to drink in order to get home is MUCH worse than any medicine.
