The Unfinished Angel (MP3 CD)

Description

---

Take an extraordinary angel, a spunky girl named Zola, a whole lot of orphans, and one funny pigeon--mix them all up and you've got magic. Newbery Medal winner Sharon Creech spins a charming story about the healing powers of love.

In the winding stone tower of the Casa Rosa, in a quiet little village in the Swiss Alps, lives one very unlikely angel. An angel who is still awaiting her instructions from the angel training center. What happens to an angel who doesn't know her mission? She floats and swishes from high above, watching the crazy things that "peoples" say and do. But when a zany American girl named Zola arrives in town and invades the Casa Rosa, dogs start arfing, figs start flying through the air, lost orphans wander in, and the village becomes anything but quiet. As Zola and the angel work together to rescue the orphans, they each begin to realize their purpose and learn that there is magic in the most ordinary acts of kindness.Hilarious and endearing, Newbery Medal winner Sharon Creech's story is imbued with happiness and wonder and an appreciation for all the little things that make life big.
