- Description
Under Angel Wings is the true story of a young girl in Brazil who saw and heard her Guardian Angel during most of her life. The book is filled with real-life anecdotes which are edifying, moving and often humorous.
Cecy (See-see) Cony (1900-1937) tells story after story of how her Guardian Angel - whom she calls her "New Friend" - kept her from lying, stealing, revenge, immodesty, and from watching certain movies. She also describes how he protected her in moral dangers which she did not even understand, and how he aided her when she got into trouble because she was a "simpleton," as she puts it. Most beautiful of all, she relates how her Guardian Angel taught her to make sacrifices for Jesus and guided her in practicing acts of charity.
Cecy describes many incidents of temptation from her youth. In each one, we see the beautiful way in which her Guardian Angel led his little charge to perfect contrition for her faults and turned all these difficult situations to good. Under Angel Winds reveals God's great love and care for His children on earth. It reminds us that He has also given each of us our own "New Friend" who has a similar, even if less visible, love and care for us.
"My sisters read a lot. This book, they say, is undoubtedly the best....I think this book is awesome....I think you and your children would benefit from this book A LOT. I recommend it highly, highly."

from 6098 reviewsWe are absolutely loving this game. Learning proper names of things plus my kids are noticing those same things at Mass and pointing them out!
I love this colouring book and it has really nice pages to color as well as telling the story of Saint Carlos. It is inspiring, informative and was a great price! I gave out 7 copies this morning at Children's Liturgy and might purchase more! I can't wait to hear how the kids like them next week!
great idea
I love it because it’s not a traditional for a card. I love the seven steps to sainthood that any young person or adult can read easily.
The coloring book with its wonderful illustrations and bi-lingual texts is a prayer answered! I hope you make MORE like this!
I loved this so much I bought a bunch for my PD!
Very Impressive and high quality!!
Gave to Catholic youth ministries to help our young understand the basic beliefs in living a peaceful life
Very powerful prayer to Saint Carlo Acutis!
Love these so much! My only regret is that I didn’t buy more.
Love him. What about making an altar girl?
I will ne giving this as a gift to our grandson in November. He is a fan of the Fr. Leopold bricks and items.
My students each enjoyed coloring a page of this book. We have added their artwork to our classroom library.
They are very cute although I think they are quite expensive for the one Lego alter boy. I like them and I ordered 2 but they are pricey
Cards arrived before our trip to Rome.
Beautiful and informative cards. Thanks!
A lovely book to help understand the role of guardian angels in our lives.
If we all had the faith of children, such as the girl in the story, maybe we would all be seeing more angels! Heartening story.
Love it so far, I read it to the kids.
Thanks!
