"Sylvie wakes one night, suddenly, without knowing why. Then she sees the most spectacular sight - a pair of wings, enormous in size, made of the softest snow-white feathers imaginable. An angel in her bedroom--a Snow angel! He tells her that he is here to look after her, for Sylvie is not as well as she seems. Many months later, as Sylvie recovers from her illness, she longs to see her snow angel again. He saved her life! There is so much she wants to tell him, so much she wants to know! Will he ever come back to her? And how can Sylvie make sure that everyone she loves has their own snow angel, to keep them safe, too?"--Provided by publisher.

I liked this book a lot. It was really enjoyable, cute and super adorable and a very short and quick listen too. This was a unique perspective about snow angels and such that reminded me of when I use to love doing snow angels and wondered about angels when I was a child.
The narration on this was

wonderfully done and added to the story bringing the characters and the world to life even more. This was a fun audiobook and the narrator was fantastic for this. The narrator really portrayed the childlike wonder, joy, humor, awe, and happiness perfectly in this story.
This story is about a little girl who wakes up in the middle of the night one night and she's not sure why and then she sees this snow angel in her room talking to himself. The snow angel introduces himself to the little girl named Sylvie but he's upset because she can see him and he says she's not supposed to be able to see him. He tells her he was sent there to save her life, to help her, and then when she's better she shouldn't remember him, but she does. She starts to think about and remember him all the time and tries to find a way to get him to reappear to her. Then she tries to find him, get him to reappear so she can get his help with getting a wish granted. Sylvie has to get her snow angel to appear so he can help her to make it so everyone can make sure they have their own snow angels to watch over them. It's a lovely, heartwarming, and adorable story that's especially perfect for this time of year. I can't gush about this enough and recommend that you put it on your list and make sure to read it when it comes out!
