This is a fun little, feel-good book. It's about an angel that lives in a tower of an old home in Switzerland. She's lived there for hundreds of years and is not quite sure what an angel is supposed to do. (The story is told from her viewpoint.) Enter a spunky little girl named Zola who can see the angel. Zola has definite ideas about what the angel should be doing. She starts to get the angel more involved in every day life in this village. It's a great story, very appropriate to the Christmas season. I really love Sharon Creech's writing.
