This is a cute book for your tweens. the theme is bullying and friendship along with peer pressure. Lepri helps the reader see that being in the "in crowd" isn't always what it's cracked up to be. This is a very good message for those in between years when your child wants to fit in but can't find his/her click. It can be a hard road to travel alone. Tiny Angel will help the reader see that sometimes it isn't good to be in the "in crowd". It's hard to turn the other cheek and take a stand. While this was a very cute book I must stay true to my language code (see code here) and let you know there are some words in this book that I consider curse words.

In 1995, Nancy and her husband Art relocated to Wilmington NC where her publishing credits included the Wilmington Magazine as well as two national and international food-industry trade magazines.
Receiving Editor Certification through Cape Fear Community College in 2006, Nancy taught online writing and drawing courses, illustrated children’s books, started four mainstream novels, and had her children’s chapter book Tiny Angel, published through Guardian Angel Publishing in November 2009.
After a move to the Raleigh area in 2007, Nancy freelanced as senior editor for a national publisher, edited and wrote press releases for more than twenty novels, and was copy editor and reviewer for Affaire de Coeur magazine. She currently edits and critiques manuscripts, reviews for ReaderToReader.com and New York Journal of Books, and is completing her sequel to Tiny Angel.

Thanks for the lovely review of Nancy's book. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
I had to go and look at your language code because I had read the book and I couldn't rememer any cuss words. Thanks for including the link so readers know what kinds of words you're talking aout.
I recently created a trailer for this book. Your readers can find it at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LpzS_vYroHA
Thanks again.
Wishing you and your readers a blessed Christmas.

Thank you for your review of my book. I too had to go to your language code to see what words you consider curse words and was surprised for I knowingly did not infuse any curses in my book. But you have a right to your opinion, and I respect that. Thank you again for your candor. Happy holidays to you.

I was concerned with your comments about my using "curse" words in my text, so curiosity got the better of me and I went through the manuscript. I found 1 "darn", 1 "heck", 1 "gosh" and 7 "geesh".
Because of your stance on not using these words, I'm surprised, but honored that you continued reading my book.
Thank you again...
