Piano sheet music: Kiki's delivery service

Kiki is a 13 year-old witch in training. By tradition, it is time for Kiki to leave her home to spend a year alone in a new town to establish herself as a full witch. Kiki sets herself on her mother's broom with her closest companion, Jiji, a loquacious black cat. She flies off to a new life.

Kiki settles in the beautiful (fictional) seaside island city of Korico, and after initially finding it difficult to adjust to the pace of life, starts a delivery service that takes advantage of her ability to fly. Kiki experiences several setbacks such as slow business, misplaced merchandise, rude customers and illness. She also has to deal with her loneliness, worries, and homesickness.

One day, she even loses her magic. Eventually Kiki overcomes these obstacles with the help of her newfound friends, most notably a young artist who gives some good advice about the kind of inspiration she needs to regain her magic. In a moment of crisis, she finds that inspiration to regain her flying ability to rescue a boy she has befriended when he is involved in a dirigible accident - thanks largely to her independence, self-reliance, and with encouragement and help from others.
