Tally and the Angel: Book One India by Eleanor Dixon – Review by Jennifer Crain

India by Eleanor Dixon
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book would be perfect for kids that love geography and learn about other countries of the world. I appreciated how the author, Eleanor Dixon, mentions death and grief in a realistic way. The book follows Tally as she solves the mystery of how to save not only her best friends sister, but numerous other children. I love how Eleanor interweaves some historical cultural icons of India throughout the story (feeling less forced than some other series), such as clothing, multiple deities, etc.

You can tell the author has actually visited India, because the descriptions are authentic in feel and a joy to read. Even as an adult, I enjoyed reading about Tally’s adventure and can’t wait to see what problems she solves in Canada (book 2) and Japan (book 3).
