The Kingdom of Carbonel by Barbara Sleigh
Carbonel, king of the cats, needs help, so John and Rosemary are called up to guard his two royal kittens and protect his kingdom while he is answering the summons of the great cat.
Barbara Sleigh was born in 1906 in Warwickshire. She took an art teacher's training course, and later began to write stories for children for radio. She was a lecturer at Goldsmiths' Teacher Training College, then in 1933 joined the staff of BBC Children's Hour. There she met and married David Davis, who later became Head of Children's Hour. Her first children's book, Carbonel, which was to become the first of a trilogy, was published in 1955 and has remained a firm favourite with younger readers.
