An Angel to Watch Over Me

In An Angel to Watch Over Me, Joan Wester Anderson shares more than 30 stories of children's experiences with celestial beings—from a boy whose angel helps him conquer his fear of thunderstorms to a girl who is miraculously rescued from her burning house.

From angels who combat evil and darkness to angels who bring news of comfort and joy, each of these accounts is grounded in traditional Christian belief, eschewing any New Age interpretation of the events. For all who are open to the possibility that even children can have authentic spiritual lives—and that attaining a certain age is not a prerequisite for God to touch our lives in the form of heavenly helpers—this book is sure to stir the soul and fan the faith.
