Tally and the Angel: Book One , India by Eleanor Dixon – Review by Jamie Burns

/0 Comments/in /by

This is the first book in this series, and let me tell you it was definitely and adventure worth taking with Tally and the hard Ian angel, Jopheil. The reader is introduced to Tally right after she lost her mom who she was really close to. Her father takes her on a trip to India where Tally makes new friends and faces more challenges. Jopheil is woven throughout the story in bits of the journey. This book was out of my normal zone of reading, but I loved it! It is nice to read a book about a different culture and learn a little more about other people in the process. This is a great book that can bring a strong connection for those who have lost loved ones and the struggles that you face.

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

What a fun adventure story!! This book is geared towards middle grades, ages 7-12, but I thoroughly enjoyed it as an adult!

We meet Tally at a really bad time in her life. She’s just lost her precious mother, whom she loves so dearly. Before taking a trip, her dad gifts her with a pendant. In that pendant lives a guardian angel named Jophiel. Tally is thinking that she’s going to be sent away to boarding school but instead talks her dad into letting her join him on his journey to India. It’s there that Tally makes two really great friends but they had no idea the horrible adventure that awaited them!

I LOVED this book!! There is mystery and adventure, cultural changes, grief and loss, as well as bravery and compassion in this book. I devoured this book pretty quickly as it was just that exciting! My heart broke for Tally and honestly, I struggled reading this book because I too, just lost my mom recently. I love how this book focuses on having a friend(s) nearby to help in times of sadness. This would be a great book for summer reading!!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A sweet story about a girl and her father taking out on adventure after her mother’s death. Tally meets an angel to look over her, given to her by her mother. As Tally and her father start their journey in India she learns that the world is much different from what she has known. A great view of how we tend to make assumptions about things that are different to us and how we can help make a change. Tally begins the book as a naïve and somewhat spoiled young girl and grows to become a kind-hearted and brave hero to a whole city.

Tally and Jophiel are back. Another good story to read with my daughter. We really enjoyed how the second book was in a different country and we(she) got to learn new things. Excited to see where Tally and her angel go next.

As an avid fantasy reader, I tend to enjoy religious-themed fantasy novels as well. This was no exception. While it’s definitely written for middle-school aged readers, it’s done well enough to still be enjoyable as an adult. This is definitely the type of book that I would have LOVED when I was younger. Short, cute, and entertaining, I would definitely recommend it for younger fantasy readers!

This is book 1 of the series Tally and the Angel. It was such a good book. It’s great for middle school aged kids. The story itself was awesome! I enjoyed learning more about India. I liked that it has a religious aspect to it, but it wasn’t pushing religion to the reader, just giving facts. I can’t wait to read book 2!
