Synopsis

When a lost black cat appears in Tintock Wood, Florence the Border Collie is determined to help — even though cats and dogs don't always see eye to eye.

But Black the cat has no idea where home is. All he knows is that there are mountains, a secret beach, a loch without a name, a clock tower across the water — and some very large footprints in the sand.

With Aurorla the Arctic unicorn on holiday, Florence must rely on some unexpected helpers: a fire-breathing dragon who cooks marshmallows, a wise old owl, and a bunny rabbit with a very surprising secret.

Can Florence piece together the clues and get Black the cat home before dark?

Filled with magical creatures, a mystery to solve, and a very special celebration cake created with the children of Townhill Primary School in Dunfermline, Florence and the Black Cat is a warm and funny story about friendship, kindness, and the magic in everyone.

The fifth book in The Magical Adventures of Florence the Border Collie.

A Fife-based freelance illustrator and origami tutor, self-proclaimed paper lover and cake enthusiast.I'm the creative sitting at The Ricketty Desk. I illustrate at events and conferences, regenerate text-heavy documents, and design infographic material. My work can be found in magazines, advertising, websites, products, novels and children's books. My focus is on bringing ideas to life and making information digestible, accessible, and interesting. People remember the wonder of storybooks when they see my designs and the ease of learning from them.Businesses, organisations and authors come to me when they want to connect with their audiences in a way that's inviting and personable. My designs are traditionally created by hand with ink and paper. These are then photographed and layered into composites using software on my computer.Each sketch is usually created from a minimum of 6 individual drawings. I take inspiration from vintage children's tales, patterns and classic typography, and as a reflection of this, my style is playful and fun. I'm a great fan of sketchy lines and I like to keep that not-so-perfect look (just like real life!) in my work. I regularly teach origami classes in museums, libraries, schools and community spaces to all ages and abilities across Scotland.If you'd like to collaborate on a project or commission an illustration, drop me an email: the_ricketty_desk@hotmail.co.uk
