An Angel for Molly

Suzanne Weyn takes Molly to an ancient Irish castle on a business trip with her distracted father, and the setting adds real atmosphere to what is at heart a relatable preteen story about wanting to be seen by a parent. When Molly's plan to get her dad's attention goes dangerously wrong, a guardian angel's quiet intervention becomes the turning point — handled gently enough that faith-friendly families across a range of traditions will find it comfortable rather than preachy. The honest caveats: this is a series entry, so some backstory from earlier Forever Angels books is assumed, and the 1990s setting and style may feel dated to today's middle-grade readers. No major critical reviews exist to gauge literary quality independently. But for nine-to-twelve-year-olds who enjoy faith-adjacent adventure and a satisfying family resolution, this delivers.
