In this adaptation of a 1942 story, Raggedy Ann and Andy help a kindhearted police officer capture a wicked magician who has been harrassing Mr. and Mrs. Hooligooly for their magic cooking stick. After they reform the magician, he understands the value of friendship. Sweet, dated-looking watercolor and ink illustrations complete this sentimental package with appeal for collectors.
