The Unfinished Angel

'Brimful of grace and cheer; moving, funny and sweet-and-begging to be read aloud.' - Kirkus.

'Some books are absolute magic, and this is one of them.' - School Library Journal.

'Peoples are strange! The things they are doing and saying-sometimes they make no sense. Did their brains fall out of their heads? Why don't they be quiet?'

From one of the world's most highly regarded contemporary writers for children comes this beautiful novel about a muddle-headed angel and a free-spirited girl.

In the ancient stone tower of the Casa Rosa, in a tiny village high in the Swiss Alps, life for one aimless angel has been the same since she can remember… That is until Zola comes along.

Zola is a girl with a mission, and when she and the angel collide, figs fly, and the whole village begins to wake up.
