Summary:
Scholastica, or "Tick," loves making candles in her father's shop, but when he takes on an apprentice and forbids Tick from helping she is determined to prove she deserves a spot in his shop.
Scholastica has grown up helping her father make candles in his shop. There are ups and downs -- while constantly smelling like tallow makes it hard for Tick to keep friends, stray cats love her. Still, she delights in the work and the fact that she can help Papa. Because she's a girl, Tick can never be a true apprentice in the trade, but since she gets to do the job anyway, what does it matter what she's called? Every summer, tick and her father use the long daylight hours to make as many candles as possible to sell at the Stourbridge Fair. And this year Tick is finally going to be allowed to make the special Agnus Dei charms that keep travelers safe. Then one morning she finds a boy sitting at her workbench. Papa has taken on an apprentice and forbidden Tick from helping with the candlemaking. But Tick isn't about to stand for this. She's going to prove to Papa that she deserves to be his apprentice, even if it means sneaking away to the fair...
