The Candle and the Cat

Caro, a bright‑eyed girl with a crown of brown curls, spends her afternoons perched on stone pillars beside the stately home of a theological seminary. With her faithful cat, Trolley, lounging in the sun, she chats with passing scholars, delighting in the world’s small wonders while insisting she isn’t afraid of height. Their gentle banter reveals a simple truth: the cat, though carefree by day, trembles at the thought of darkness and clings to the comfort of light.

The story follows this sweet pair as they navigate everyday adventures—climbing, exploring, and sharing the worries that hide in quiet moments. Through Caro’s kindness and Trolley’s shy fascination with candles, listeners encounter a tender exploration of bravery, friendship, and the comforting glow that eases fear. It’s a heart‑warming glimpse into childhood imagination, perfect for anyone who remembers the magic of a sunny porch and a loyal companion.
