(4) 4-6 Wednesday Tales series. Illustrated by Brandon Dorman. Miles Wednesday is living in a barrel (having run away from the orphanage) when he rescues an angel from a circus. This leads Miles on a quest to find another angel and his stolen teddy bear. While the writing is overblown ("Miles Wednesday, wind-swayed, bread and cheese in hand..."), the story is inventive and moves along at a fast clip.
