Angel of Mine follows an energetic toddler as he goes through his day, from waking up, to playing, to napping, to asking lots of questions, and finally going to sleep at night. It highlights the contrast between his seemingly endless energy when awake and his angelic peacefulness while sleeping. A Note from the Author: Angel of Mine was inspired by my son, Shalin. I was always amazed by the sharp contrast between his seemingly endless energy when awake and his angelic peacefulness while sleeping. This book is an attempt to capture that sweet contrast. I wrote Angel of Mine while Shalin was attending Victory Academy. The idea for the book first came to me in a dream as a tune, to which I then added words to create a song. Magen Dignan, the music therapist at Victory, and Michael Allard, one of the many amazing teachers at Victory, took the tune and lyrics and transformed it into a beautiful lullaby. Angel of Mine was illustrated by Lily Schultz, a high-school student at Victory Academy, making it a collaboration of many wonderful talents at the school.

I was a ten-year-old girl living in Phnom Penh when the Khmer Rouge came and robbed me. First, they took my home, driving us out of the city and into their labor camps. Then one by one, they took my family members. They tried to take me too. They tried to starve me, to wear me down with disease, to catch me stealing so that they could execute me. They tried to work me to death. But every time, I beat them. Every time, I survived. And not only that. I saw what they thought they could hide from me. I saw glimpses of beauty in a hideous world. I saw light that penetrates even the fiercest darkness. I saw that there was hope.
