Calling the Shots

Feisty Mel the trainee time-travelling angel is back for her fourth adventure! And this time, it's 1920s Hollywood that needs her special touch... Mel gets the Call - a strange out-of-body experience which tells Angel Academy students that they are ready for their first guardian angel module. At first, it seems like a suitably fluffy assignment - the America of the 1920s, full of flappers and limos, jazz and silent movies. But Mel's got her hands full when she has to look after Honesty Bloomfield, a sullen, withdrawn girl who is travelling across America with her family. They are bound for Hollywood - the city of dreams or nightmares? Calling the Shots is the fourth title in the hugely successful series, Angels Unlimited. Mel has a very real and contemporary teenage voice which will particularly appeal to readers aged 9-12. Annie Dalton tackles issues with humour and sensitivity, much in the way Jacqueline Wilson does. Her lively and witty writing has won her many fans.
