ANGELIC PRAISE for "Rosie & the Angels"
"For me, Rosie is everywoman, under the protection, often unknowingly, of the Goddess. I will listen to these stories the way I listen to my favorite music.over and over again." --Carol Ann Williams, Professor of English and Liberal Studies; Lecturer in Women's Ancient History, Mythology
"We often ask why bad things happen to people. Less often do we ponder why good things happen when all indicators point to disaster. In these delightful recollections of events in Rosie's life when disaster loomed large, the possibility of angelic interventions is suggested. Or maybe blind luck, plain and simple, is the only explanation." --Anne Beretta, former editor and development education facilitator
"Ann is a nimble story teller whose superb voice is rife with humour. If lovable Rosie has her roots in Ann's own life, the angel sphere no doubt applauds this captivating recounting." --Sharon Singer, motivating spirit behind her writing classes, "The Moving Pen"
"Ann Tudor's new collection of droll and touching Rosie stories is a unique CD treasure. Her sure touch for the telling details and her underlying sense of humor will leave the listener riveted. These stories are beautifully written and delivered." --Michael Johnson, columnist for web magazine thecolumnists.com and contributor to the International Herald Tribune
"These small stories, filled with humour and grace, magnify life's large questions and ask us to look to our own angels for the answers." --Dr.Pam Sostorics
"I thoroughly enjoyed Rosie's adventures on her journey through life. I listened to some of the thought-provoking stories while driving, but I really enjoyed them most when I just lay on my yoga mat and allowed them to unfold in my mind's eye. --Kerry Palframan, RN
"I love this CD. It is a great companion for driving. If you've ever thought about guardian angels, Rosie's hair-raising adventures will leave you wondering what powers that be are at work to help us be 'saved in spite of ourselves'. Ann tells these stories with humour and wonder." --Julie Simmons, astrologer, author, lecturer
