Angel of Hope had a great introduction. I couldn’t put the book down! The introduction got right to the story, and it didn’t drag. It grabbed my attention from the very beginning.

It had very exciting events. The characters had many adventures during their travels through Africa. The events made me want to read more!

The characters seemed very real, and I could really relate to them. When they were sad, I was sad. When they were happy, I was happy. Therefore, I laughed and I cried. They were very interesting.

This book was a real page-turner. I couldn’t put the book down, and the events that followed were very interesting. I couldn’t wait to find out what happened next. The plot was well written.

This book described all the events very well. While I was reading the book, I could picture everything in my head. It described every little detail.

I like this book because it was exciting to read. There were many adventures, it was a love story, and a small baby’s life was at risk. I would have liked the book better if the ending would have been more exciting!

Angel of Hope and Sarah Plain and Tall are both fiction books with believable stories. Angel of Hope was better because it was more exciting and my interest level was higher. In Angel of Hope there were also more adventures. The way Sarah Plain and Tall was set up, it felt like it was a dream. Angel of Hope was realistic. [Missy]
