India (Tally and the Angel, #1)India by Eleanor Dixon
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I know this book was written for kids, but I thoroughly enjoyed reading it with my 11-year-old daughter! The author so expertly and flawlessly covers a very difficult topic for everyone, let alone kids, and that is grief. I enjoy the way they covered different cultures and really paints a beautiful picture of India as a whole. Tally definitely goes through some of the most difficult times in this story, but having a friend to lean on makes such a big difference. What a magnificent start to the series, we can’t wait to see what’s next!

India (Tally and the Angel, #1)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).

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Cute middle school age about what’s right and wrong, and someone having your back

A cute book about finding inner strength as well as having someone help you be true to yourself and good to others. Includes a mystery storyline.

While there is an Angel involved and there’s little snippets of its journey to get to today, this book is not overtly religious, which I appreciated. The setting here is mostly in India, so the novel gives facts about the country as well as the Hindi language, culture/style, and religion.

I enjoyed the fact that it seems that each character we meet has some character trait that they’re working on. For example, Tally is just a middle schooler who’s growing up and learning to be a good person, and her dad is trying do good in the world while also being there for his daughter after the passing of his wife/her mom.

I thoroughly appreciate the obvious research that went in to bringing the Indian culture and architecture to life on the page. I love ancient architecture and art and you can tell that the author did their due diligence in the background and representing it authentically for the young readers.

Content warning included in this paragraph: I would label this novel as upper middle school and recommend that parents be willing and able to have discussions with their child about what is read. There is a bit of a mystery theme to this novel as children have gone missing and I think it would be important to know how the child(ren) can handle mature themes like kidnapping and child labor.

This book was one simple word Amazing! A perfect paranormal fantasy, with danger, bravery, drama, mystery, and more. Tally is our main character, and being a teenage girl who just lost her mother, your heart just breaks for her. Until she is given her angel pendant and then everything changes. There is just so much packed into this short book, but the author did a phenomenal job pulling their readers in and then keeping them on a roller coaster ride full of drama, mystery, and a race against time until the very last page. I personally loved this book so much that I can’t wait to read the next one.

This book kept me on the edge of my seat, a real page turner, I could not put it down. A little girl named Tally started off with a very sad start, but her mother left her something special. She found courage and bravery to keep going. Tally and her dad went off to India for his work. A time when children were going missing like crazy, Tally finds herself in the middle of all the chaos to find and end this. With the strength to stand up, and with the encouraging words of her angel, some even called her an angel. This book was very good and would recommend it to anyone that loves reading, packed with page turning advents and a little girl that finds a place to call home.

Tally and the Angel is the first book in the India series by Eleanor Dixon and is a book for kids 8-12 and family. Eleanor has beautifully written this paranormal fantasy tale and it will be liked by young and old. It is easy to picture the world and characters that Eleanor has woven due to her vivid writings, and you will be delightfully drawn into solving the mystery along with a brave little girl, Tally. This little gem is centred around Tally who is 13 years old and on a trip to India with a very special necklace. She soon finds herself in the midst of a mystery and sets out to help.

I look forward to the next adventure.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was truly a heartfelt story and beautifully written. I personally loved the story the background, the characters and how the story progressed.

Reading this I found it very touching and sweet as well as a book to shine light even for those of us who are facing the darkest times of our life.

The girl in the story who is named Tally, had recently lost someone very close to her and though she knew she needed to be strong in spirit, you could tell a heavy weight was being carried in her heart. (I had a strong relation to this as I too just suffered a great loss in my life and reading about Tally I often taught to myself that is how I feel…its hard, really hard, but you have to be strong and keep going on even if you don’t know what you are going to face next because things feel so unknown.)

Through a surprise and yet beautiful inheritance of this necklace from her late mother, whom was the loss she was had recently experienced and was working though. I felt upon reading that Tally was immediately drawn to it. At that time there were reasons unknown. Further reading, I learned as well as Tally did that it contained a wonderful gift, an angel whom had the name of Jophiel.

Right away I got the sense of there’s a reason to why Tally has an angel. But what was the reasons for this? I had to continue on to learn more.

Continuing on Tally realized she had to face a great adventure and she was basically destined for this task. There was an issue of the people and children of India being in undergoing danger. And Tally knew in her heart she had to help them and not stand by and allow this. Things happen for a reason and Tally felt she was chosen for this path as well as adventure and she wasn’t going to let anything stop her from finishing her chosen role.

More reading, you could see how Strong of a character Tally was and is! She had to face dangers and uncertainty. There was powerful moments in the journey of the adventure Tally faced with Jophiel. Tally was and is a character that is very commendable and able to be a great role model for young children. Not only did she have to go thru grief, but also take on a task that was not only dangerous, but it was also a task not knowing what the true outcome would be. There was basically many tests and positive and negative occurrences that Tally and Jophiel faced. They did what they had to do in the end.

All in all, this was a beautiful and well written story. It was a impact and a great read, and I truly enjoyed this story from start to finish. I look forward very much to the next part. I will defiantly be getting a copy to read for myself.

Wonderful job to the author, who has written a very creative and well written story. I look forward to reading more of your work in the future!

This is a sweet moving story perfect for young readers. It is full of love and hope but it is also action packed.

I loved the mixture of angels and gods and the war against good and evil. The fact that Tally had an angel by her side but still had to find a way to overcome her obstacles on her own is a good lesson to teach children.

The story itself is great, full of action and adventure with some heartwarming moments. I really enjoyed it.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Tally is a thirteen year old girl who has just lost her mother, she is distraught even though she knew it was coming and her dad feels the same, but when he talks about a future without her, what he describes seems like the worse thing that could happen to Tally, he wants to leave her behind as a boarding student at her school, but she end up telling him exactly how awful it is there and why, she held back before so she wouldn’t worry her mum, so when she asks her dad to take her with him, he agrees to consider it. After this conversation, he gives her a letter and a gift from her mum, in the letter Tally’s mum tells her about what is in the box, it turns out that it is a pendant of the Angel Jophiel and that it will protect and guide her throughout her life until it is ready to be passed to someone else as it has been passed to her. All Tally wants to do is cry herself to sleep, but she is drawn to the small marble angel which looks so real, so she slips it over her head as she falls asleep and feels like she is surrounded by feathers as she sleeps.

As the time passes and she gets used to the idea of her changed circumstances, her dad tells her that she can go with him on his travels and continue her schoolwork as they go, he then tells her that he has been asked to go to India to help a colleague out and that they will leave in the morning, so Tally heads to her room to pack. As she is doing this, he thoughts go to her school friends and how she wants to rub it is]n that she doesn’t have to go to school anymore, it is at this point that the Angel Jophiel begins to talk to her and adminish her for her thoughts and this is where their companionship and friendship start, he will answer whenever she calls to him, be in out loud or in her head and he will support and guide her as she explores the world with her dad.

Once all the arrangement are made, Tally and her dad set off for India, it is Tally’s first time flying and she is more than excited and this stays that way when they land, they are met at the airport and taken to the house they will be staying in, this is where Tally meets her dad’s friend and the lady who will be looking after them. After she unpacks, Tally walks round the garden and as she is talking to her Angel, she runs into a boy called Balvan who she talks to and invites to meet her dad when she mentions going to the Taj Mahal the next day. As the four talk, they find out about a case the local police are working on surrounding children going missing around India, so they are warned to take care and not go anywhere by themselves, but Tally is fine with this and agrees to it.

The next few days are taken up with schoolwork in the mornings and sightseeing in the afternoons, however, when she becomes embroiled in the mystery of the disappearing children, will she and Jophiel be able to solve the mystery in time to stop the plot, or will it be too late and the flood bear down on India? This is a charming tale of friendship and how it can heal hearts, as well as having a healthy dose of mystery solving which will keep you entertained all the way through.

I thought that the main character showed such a strong, tough, and persevering disposition you couldn’t help but love her and root for her. She’s certainly a role model for many young kids. Adults as well. She has quite the fighter spirit and despite all the obstacles she faces she doesn’t back down. I highly recommend you pick this book up for your children. It’s a wonderful story with a beautiful adventure.

Tally and the Angel is a cute story geared for 7-12-year-old children. Eleanor Dixon did an amazing job writing this story. The level of detail allows readers to really visualize the story. The plotline has the elements of fantasy, mystery, adventure, and bravery. The characters are enchanted. This is the story of Tally and her very own Angel. Tally received a pendant after the saddest day (her mom’s death), it has the Angel Jophiel living inside it. One would think that having an angel with you would be awesome, but Tally learns that it is not always the best gift. The adventure that you take with Tally and Angel Jophiel has some twists and turns, ups and downs, and some scary stuff they get into. Will Tally and Angel Jophiel be able to enjoy the adventure? Can Tally and Angel Jophiel stay focused on the positive side of things or will there be some bad things that they cannot overcome? I highly recommend this book as I found it an interesting story.

He is kind of like a guardian angel to Tally as she and her father embark on a trip to India. Tally is excited because she will be homeschooled and gets to travel with her father. She is looking forward to new adventures. She finds herself on a new and dangerous adventure once they are settled in their new city. She and her new friend, Balvan, try to figure out the case of the missing girls. Learn true facts about India as you read about some of the trouble that finds Tally. I liked the characters in the book. Jophiel is a wonderful character because he reminds her to be a good person and if she strays, he tends to get her back on the path.

Tally and the Angel is the first book in a cute middle-grade children’s contemporary series.
Tally is gifted a pendant by her mother, but it is not just any pendant, it has an angel living in it! Tally believes having her very own angel is great and cannot wait to take him on her trip to India with her father.
Once in India, she learns of children being kidnapped in the city of Agra, that they are staying in. With the help of her angel Jophiel and a few friends along the way, she begins to solve the mystery of who is taking the children and what has happened to them.
I think the author did a great job of using words that middle-grade readers could understand and relate to. As an adult, even I was excited to find out how the book concluded and what the answer to the mystery was.
I would highly recommend this book, not only for young middle-grade readers but for adults too. It was a fun book that includes mystery, adventure, friendship, bravery and so much more! The author really makes you feel like you are a part of the adventure and wants you to keep reading to find out what happens.
I cannot wait to read where the next adventure is for Tally and Jophiel!

Tally and the Angel: Book One India is a fun Middle school age children’s story by Eleanor Dixon. This is a wonderful paranormal fantasy, with adventure, mystery, danger, drama, a race against time, bravery, and more.
Tally inherits a necklace that holds a wonderful secret. The necklace is home to an Angel- and you guessed it- adventure awaits. When Tally discovers that children are being stolen, she feels she needs to do something about it. And so the adventure begins. She and her angel guide, Jophiel, find themselves pitted against the ‘bad guys’ in a race against time in order to save the day. I couldn’t help but become invested in the outcome and was rooting for her the whole way through.
This story may be aimed at a younger audience, but it is so charming that I feel it could be enjoyed by all ages!

Absolutely loved this book! Reading the synopsis and seeing the cover I wasn’t too sure if it was going to be my style, but from the first chapter I was immediately drawn into this story. I was sad to see little Tally lose her mom at a young age, but she is a strong girl and goes off on the start of an adventure with her dad. Their first stop is India, everything, every place, every person was described so nicely, the picture in my head was so vivid. I was happy to see Tally befriend Balvan, and excited to see where their friendship would go in terms of adventures together. The magic of the pendant Tally’s mom passed down to her along with the Angel Jophiel that inhabits the necklace is such a fun addition to the story and watching their relationship grow and discovering the powers Jophiel holds and how they can help Tally is so cool. I would really recommend this to any child or young adult to read, or anyone really, it is a very fun and interesting to read. I can’t wait to see what happens next!

Tally, a brave, strong and intelligent 13 year old, is devastated at the death of her mother. But when her father gives her a gift left behind for her, she discovers she’s received so much more than a pendant. Inside the pendant lives an angel! Tally sets off around the world with her father, angel in tow. But when she uncovers a kidnapping plot to take over India, she steps out of her comfort zone to save the children.

A great read, however, I do think some of the themes would be a little deep for children on the younger end of the target age range(8-12). I think some of the angel/demon/god talk might be confusing for the younger reader. I am looking forward to reading the 2nd installment. Tally is a loveable main character. 4/5 stars
