The Little Angel by Rosie Goodwin is the second book in Days of the Week series. The story begins in December of 1896 in the village of Nuneaton. Sunday Branning and her husband, Tom run Treetops Children’s Home. One day there is a knock on the door and when they open the door they find a baby girl on the doorstep. There is a note with the child who is named Kitty along with money for her care. Sunday, who is unable to have children of her own, is instantly taken with Kitty and grows to love her more each day. When Kitty turns seventeen, Miss Phyllis Fox arrives. Miss Fox is there on behalf of Kitty’s mother, Ruby Darling who wishes Kitty to join her in London. Kitty desires to know her birth mother and departs for London the next day. Ruby Darling is a singer who works the theater, but, as she gets older, there are fewer opportunities for her. Kitty has an angelic singing voice and Ruby starts grooming her for a stage career. Kitty is not wise to the ways of the world and she needs to be careful whom she trusts. Not everyone in Kitty’s life has her best interests at heart. Discover what happens to Kitty in The Little Angel.

I did not read the first book in Days of the Week series, and I did not feel like I was missing anything. I was able to enjoy The Little Angel without any difficulties. The Little Angel is nicely written and has a gentle pace. The cover is just lovely. I found The Little Angel to be an interesting story. I kept reading to find out what would happen to Kitty. I did find myself yelling at my Kindle on occasion telling Kitty to wise up. One of the themes in the book is to learn from our mistakes. We all make errors in judgement, but we need to learn from them and do better in the future. The Little Angel is an emotional story with some heartbreaking scenes. The Little Angel takes the reader full circle with the ending. It was lovely stepping back in time with The Little Angel. ( )
