Howl's Moving Castle Part 3

Where last week's post left off, the creepy scarecrow was trying to get inside the castle. Scary!



The castle moves fast enough to escape the scarecrow.

There is some confusion with Howl liking Lettie, Sophie's sister. Howl likes the real Lettie, while Michael likes Martha who is disguised as Lettie. By the way, Michael is 15 years old, so it works for him to like Martha since she is his age. Sophie and Michael sneak out to visit the witch the Lettie is apprentice to. Sophie sees Lettie not disguised as Martha, and she is with Howl. Michael just figures it's a coincidence that there are two Letties, who look alike...

Michael has trouble with a spell, which looks more like riddle. One line says catch a falling star, so he and Sophie go outside to try and catch one. They eventually see one nearby as it falls to the ground. Michael is about to catch it, saying that he can save it. The star looks at him and says it would rather sputter out. The falling star kind of resembles Calcifer...probably because both are balls of fire that somehow can talk...

Howl comes back to the castle after Sophie and Michael return. He says he knows that the two were at the witch's house...

Come back next week for part 4!
