Review:
"Based on a true story in the life of the author, The Cat In The Candle Factory is a children's picture book...about a clever black cat, Midnight. Midnight watches the candle-making machine and signals the owner if something isn't working properly, but both of them are working too hard - and when poor Midnight slips and falls, her tail becomes dipped in orange wax! Midnight needs a break from her work to rest and recover, but how is the factory to keep running? Midnight's owner decides the only way is to find Midnight some help, in this heartwarming story especially for young cat lovers."
