Overview

What if: when kids die, they really DO become angels; and are able to have adventures, travel anywhere they want, and help children who are still living on Earth? What if? Erik and Dakota with the Angels, a Middle-Grade illustrated Fantasy book, explores those possibilities. Based on my real-life nephews who passed away in 2009, Erik and Dakota, 10 and 11-year-old brothers from the inner-city of Washington, DC find themselves, along with their mother, as angels. After meeting Meranda, a 12-year-old angel-girl from the Congo with big yellow hair and an even bigger personality, they set off to explore a world they were never able to experience while living on the Earth. Erik, the protagonist and older brother, narrates their adventures and develops into a competent leader and protector.

I don't even know where to start. I don't think I've ever come across a book quite like this one. It delivers on so many levels that it is hard to say which is the most important. After you've shared this with your little ones, they will never again think of death as scary or a final ending. They will fall in love with earth's beauty and diversity, and they will know that love is enduring and truly can change the human heart. I don't know what more you could ask for in a story. Well done, Ms. Edwards! - Ann Collins, Book Reviewer
