A review by nerdgirllin
Angels Watching Over Me by Michael R. Phillips

2.0

The story was okay, but the problems with this story are too numerous to count. It isn't too historically accurate. Who ever wrote mayme,the black characters prespective, should have spoken to some black people before doing it and should have done more intensive research about slavery and the dynamics of the institution. This story is so watered down, I wonder if it is for children. There isn't an adequate depiction of slavery in this book, nor is this story realistic. If you can overlook those issues, sure read it, or pass it off to your 8 year kid or cousin cause that is the appropriate age group to read this book.
