Daddy's little Angel
Shani Petroff
- Reading
- Before reading, discuss what boundaries Angel might set with her father. Afterwards, examine how the story presents the consequences of those boundaries.
- Themes
- Family, identity and choice: Angel learns that her father is the Devil and must consider what his identity means for her. The premise separates family background from the choices Angel makes, while leaving the eventual treatment of that tension unclear.
- Power, popularity and romance: The book addresses power, popularity and romance; the detail of how it is developed remains unclear. The setup invites questions about whether externally granted success is worthwhile, but does not show how the narrative evaluates these choices.
- Worth knowing
- The book involves a parent’s unexpected identity, supernatural powers and concern about resembling that parent. The extent and presentation of the manipulation, school conflict and romantic content are not established.
