The Candle and the Cat

Mary Finley Leonard

Caro has a silver candlestick, a cat named Trolley, and a gate in the orchard that leads somewhere interesting. The Grayson house, a local snow storm, and Trolley's own visiting rounds fill this gentle small-scale story. Leonard writes coziness with just enough mystery to turn pages. Light the candle. Please note: this is the text of the story only. It has no pictures, so it is meant for a grown-up to read aloud rather than for a child to read alone. The illustrated experience of this story is the audiobook edition on Littletone.
