Join her for a series of enchanting adventures by the light of the moon. In Kitty and the Snowball Bandit, a sneaky snowball thrower is ruining all the fun at the Winter Fair. The way they throw, hide, and run makes it seem like they have superpowers. Could this be a supervillain? It's up to Kitty to track them down and find out.
