The Day I Lost My Wings is a sweet and wholly unique children's book that is likely the first I've read in years where I wasn't entirely sure where it was going. I suspected but had doubts as my daughter read along, which was a fantastic little surprise. The standout for me is definitely the illustrations, which Litzi Y. Umana has made as a star in its own right. It is a perfect blend of effervescent, magical hues, and imagery that is so beautiful that we occasionally lingered on the page to take it all in. This charming book is a wonderful read that will likely wiggle its way into the hearts and bedtime reading line-up of many youngsters.

I really enjoyed reading The Day I Lost My Wings. It's an adorable story about a little angel who wanted to go to earth and find a family. Mochie is a cute main character that you can't help but love and enjoy reading about. I love how the story gives sort of an explanation as to where souls come from and when they decide to be born as humans. The illustrations are also beautifully done and go along perfectly with the storyline. Litzi Y. Umana has created a wonderful children's book. It's definitely one I would recommend to friends with children. I also look forward to reading more of her work.
