names in Walpurgis Afternoon

I think I liked this story the best this week. I loved the way Kim named every new pet she found after fantasy characters. I didn't know if this was actually the case at first because Frodo was the only name I knew for sure was from fantasy, but the final cat she found she named Hermoine, so that sealed the deal for me. I wondered after I finished whether everyone was capable of becoming magical, because it seemed like it was pretty easy for Evie and Kim once they were in Ophelia's house, so maybe everyone in the book had magic in them, but they needed the house to bring it out of them.
