<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>"This lushly-written, enchanting salute to magic, music and adventure is so intriguing . . ." -Nancy Krulik, <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of Katie Kazoo and Project Droid</b> <p/> Once there was a girl named Harper who had a rare musical gift. She heard songs on the wind, rhythms on the rain, and hope in the beat of a butterfly's wing. <p/> Harper lives in the City of Clouds, an enchanting place where it rains every day and an umbrella is always a good idea. With her Aunt Sassy, her beloved cat, Midnight, and all of her neighbors in the Tall Apartment Block, every day is full of possibility. <p/> But when every cat in the city goes missing--including Midnight--Harper is determined to find all of the precious pets. And she'll need a magic, flying umbrella to help in her search. Recruiting friends from her building to help, the magic umbrella whisks them into the sky on the trail of the cats and adventure. <p/> They stumble on the Midnight Orchestra--tabbies on triangle, Siamese singing, Persians on piccolo--all under the direction of its fearsome, wild conductor. But can the group use their talents, quick thinking, musical skill, and a little magic to stage a rescue like no other? <p/><i>Harper and the Scarlet Umbrella</i> is a spellbinding tale of friendship, music, and magic featuring a diverse cast, brought to life through stunning illustrations. A perfect book to be shared and treasured.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Cerrie Burnell</b> is a presenter, actress, and writer, best known for her work in British children's TV.
