Review
"[…] an uplifting Christmas story brimming with hope." * The Bookseller, Children's Previews *A timeless story fit for the approaching season, and for these times. * The Sunday Times *This is one of the most lovely books we've read in a long time. Shirley Hughes' trademark London is depicted perfectly. A reminder that small acts of kindness can travel a long way. Perfection. * Angels & Urchins *It would not be Christmas without a new tale from 92-year-old Shirley Hughes… a story that is touching but never soppy, with even the most celestial scenes brought down to earth by Hughes's charmingly domestic illustrations. * The Daily Telegraph, Books of the Year - Children's & Stocking Fillers *Angel on the Roof is a lovely Christmas book. * Spectator *
