Threatened by a bully not to tell? Bullied by kids on the playground? Will my parents love me if I do something wrong? These are some of the issues that "Gangsta Angel: A Guardian Angel in Training" addresses. Author Pat Kelly Wendling uses a spunky, pint-size angel with an attitude to help Kids see you don't need to use violence to solve issues. They can turn it around and kill with kindness and become a gang for good. Just as it becomes easier to do something wrong each time you do it, it also becomes easier to do something right each time a good decision is made. The book is geared to 9-11 year olds. A Guardian Angel named Kelly works to protect and empower her human, Bobby, to handle pressure and bullying from others. Angels have rules and Kelly learns that she can't influence her human without his asking for help. This spunky, pint size angel with red pony tails pops messages into his head, uses animals to help and even becomes human. She smiled when she was called a Gangsta Angel by an adult bully when she took on human form to help her human, Bobby, wings and all! Kelly teaches Bobby that to handle yourself, use your head and to handle others, use your heart...she is a Gangsta for good.
