The beauty of author Maddie Ryan's "Pippy's Wish" is that its main character, Pippy the angel in training, is so easy to relate to despite her being imaginary and surreal.  Pippy must improve her grades in several subjects including flying if she is to earn her wings, graduate along with her friends and move on to high school.  But Pippy, though full of energy and good intentions is somewhat challenged when it comes to listening to and following instructions. This lands her in a heap of trouble.  Will Pippy learn her lesson? Will she prevail in her quest and earn her wings?  Read the book and you shall find out! This lovely tale is enriched with wonderful messages that celebrate among others the effort to excel, kindness, and the unique in each of us.  I give this book two thumbs up and five golden stars!
