Angels Trilogy: Angels Watching Over Me/Lifted Up by Angels/Until Angels Close My Eyes (Turtleback School & Library) | 
I just started reading this again. I read it every Christmas. I was sad to discover my original copy is broken now and the first half of the book is gone. No idea what happened. So I bought it on Kindle. It‘s a great book and is the book that led me to fall in love with Amish fiction and Amish life.
3rd grade was classics like LM Montgomery & LM Alcott. 5th grade was historical fiction like Ann Rinaldi & Patricia Beatty. But 4th grade (age 10) was the age of Lurlene McDaniel for me. My best friend & I read them all together & cried over the tragedies. My mom forbid me to read them bc she thought they were too sad (so naturally, I read them more, but sneakily). 😂 Nothing like teenagers dying of cancer to brighten a 10yo's day! #17booklove
