In a small town in Italy, an angel watches over the townspeople even though she isn't really sure what her responsibilities are. The people can't see her until a man and his daughter come from America to build an international school, and the daughter Zola not only knows that she's an angel, she speaks with her and expects her to fix problems in the village, like when she discovers a group of homeless children hiding in an abandoned shed. The angel, who clearly isn't sure what she's supposed to do, follows Zola's lead. Told in the mixed-up voice of the angel, this book shows that even those who we think are in charge may not feel quite so confident of their abilities. ( )

This book was hilarious about an angel living in an ancient tower in the Swiss Alps. A family moves in and the daughter Zolo can actually see the angel and begins telling the angel what to do . . . and the angel doesn't like peoples telling her what to do. Crazy characters and fun vocabulary make this a great read. ( )

A simple and beautiful book about compassion and how we all have a little something to learn from each other.....both Angels and peoples. :) ( )

absolutely awful. ( )

Voice of unfinished angel is charming, poetic. Story is on the thin side. ( )
