Book Description:
In his 2014 homily for the Feast of Holy Guardian Angels, October 2, Pope
Francis told those gathered for daily mass to be like children who pay
attention to their "traveling companion. No one journeys alone, and no one
should think that they are alone.
"According to Church tradition," the pope said, "we all have an angel with
us, who guards us . . . It is what God said: 'I send an angel before you, to
guard you, to accompany you on the way, so you will not be alone.'"
In this children's book, angels wait anxiously and with great excitement to
see which one of them will be chosen to be the guardian angel of a child
that is to be born. This delightful book depicts the joy of all God's
creations anticipating the birth of another precious child. The sun shines
brighter, the moon has a shinier glow, flowers grow taller, birds tweet more
sweetly, and angels dance and sing with bliss, as all creation awaits
another baby girl or boy.
Whenever a Child Is Born offers the perfect message for parents as it
charmingly tells the story of how all of heaven and earth react to the news
that a child is about to be born. The story comforts parents with the
knowledge that their baby is a special gift from heaven to them, and that
they will never be alone raising their child, and that their child will
never ever be alone in life.
Parents never worry. No one journeys alone through life because whenever a
child is born, he is given a guardian angel.

My Review
Whenever a Child is Born is a sweet children's book about guardian angels. It has beautiful illustrations that make the story come to life and seem even more magical and wonderful. The story will appeal to young children because it does have a hopeful, comforting message, and I think we could all use some of that right about now. Who doesn't love the thought of being loved and protected by a guardian angel throughout their life? The book also showcases the excitement and joy the angels feel whenever a child is born. They eagerly anticipate which one of them will be chosen to follow the child along their life's journey. I do think this is type of book everyone can enjoy, regardless of their beliefs.
5 stars!

Meet the Author:
Nancy Diedrich was born and raised in South Louisiana, where storytelling
was not just an art form, but an authentic way of communicating. Everyone
had a tale to tell! This was, more than likely, where her love of
communication developed. With undergraduate degrees in English and speech,
and graduate degrees in psychological counseling, Nancy learned that words
can educate; they can entertain; they can inspire and they can heal. In
Nancy’s career, she has been a teacher, a counselor and an author, where the
power of words always guided her in interaction with her students, clients
and readers. Nancy’s value for genuine communication extends beyond her
career, to the anchors of her life, which are her faith, her family and her
friendships.
Whenever A Child Is Born is Nancy’s first published children’s book. In it,
the reader gets a glimpse of this author’s compassion for family, and her
gift of faith, as the story tells how all of heaven and earth react to the
news that a child is about to be born.
