Although she has been laughed at because she is different, a little angel is chosen to go to earth as a special baby. This description may be from another edition of this product.
I recieved this book as a gift from my aunt back when I was younger and after a search to find it I realized that it meant something to me. It is one of those books that a person will take to heart, especially those born with cleft lip/cleft palate like me. I ocassionally read it (now that I found it) and it always makes me smile. It is a great read in general for all and the messages of the story will take time to figure out because not everyone will get the same message and feeling from the book. Hope that helps!!
Exceptional!

This book was recommended by my daughter's kindergarten teacher as her first take-home library book. It is an excellent book to teach tolerance, perserverance and acceptance. It is written specifically about a cleft lip child/angel, but the lesson carries over to any kind of difference. I would recommend the book for kindergartners with an advanced vocabulary and older.
Rosey: The Imperfect Angel

This is a wonderful book written by the mother of a cleft-affected child. I purchased this book for my son, who was also born with a cleft lip and palate. I found the author's words to be sweet, encouraging, and uplifting. It is a fitting tribute to children who are different, in whatever way, from their peers. I would recommend this book to anyone who knows and/or loves a cleft-affected child (or adult). I plan to share it with my son's class when he enters school, and with the second graders I teach.
