Your Angel Army: A Book of Hope

by Kate Elizabeth Fischer, Kate Elizabeth Fischer (Illustrator)

Overview

When someone we love is struggling, we just want to fix it. But the truth is, oftentimes we are faced with situations far out of our own control. Words are difficult to find when someone is grieving or in the middle of a scary diagnosis; especially when that someone is a child. Your Angel Army can help you find the words of comfort you so desperately want to share. It is powerful and quiet all at once and does not oversimplify the challenging situations often present in our world. Through whimsical and sweet watercolor illustrations, author/illustrator Kate Fischer provides the necessary tools to lead the entire family to prayer. The uplifting and hopeful message found in this book will help readers of all ages recognize the power in having your very own angel army.

About the Author

Kate Fischer began her career as an artist in kindergarten when she learned how to sign her paintings as KATE and refused to learn the rest of the alphabet. She has been breaking all the rules ever since. She grew up in on the Chain of Lakes in Central Minnesota causing much trouble and driving her parents crazy. Kate eventually learned the ABCs and made her way to art school. She has spent the past decade utilizing her skills as a graphic artist to create packaging and branding for small businesses and nonprofit organizations across the U.S.

Kate is married to Mr. Joshua Fischer, the local kindergarten gym teacher and coach of all the things. He is tall, dark, and handsome with a passion for bacon and is blessed with a terrible singing voice - which Kate loves dearly. They live in a cool old house out in the woods among the mosquitoes and their 3 ridiculous children: Charlie, Loretta Joy, and Betty Ann.

Kate is the author and illustrator of Your Angel Army and is currently working on future manuscripts that promise to make you smile, and probably cry too (but in a good way).

Editorial Reviews

"I love this book. I think, that God gave you those exact words to write and that is nothing to be messed with." - Becky Bjorklund

"Kate is not only a talented author and artist, but also a born leader, even if she doesn't know it. She inspires me often with her huge heart, her Christian values and the presence she has when she's in the room. You're guaranteed to fall in love with any of her creations!!!" - Chelsea Markfort

"This is only the second time a book has moved me to tears...Your story is going to help so many families connect on a difficult subject. You’re amazing, you were meant to do this..." Lisa Lynn Pratt

"This book is amazing! It had me in tears- and it’s perfect the way it is ... The words used are absolutely comforting and healing. There is no easy way to explain sickness, hardships and even death to children but you really got it right. Thank you. It’s truly a beautiful work of art." - Amy Michaelis

"The fact that the book is spiritual without being too "churchy" should resonate well throughout the majority of parents and children alike. The world needs this because so many of the books available are awful and hard to read. I only hope that you continue on with stories like this in the future, to help kids in unthinkable situations find that there is help and beauty in the world. Believe it or not, dads like me can find messages in these stories as well." - Royce DeYaeger

"...It brought so many happy tears to my eyes ... sooooo beautiful!" - Erin Remme

"I kept saying each week of chemo that I was going to go into warrior mode because of all of my prayer warriors lifting me up and helping to give me the strength. I love the choice of words in this book. Thank you for creating something so beautiful that will touch so many hearts and families in need." Bre Swanson

"Wow--Kate this book is just beautiful. I love the message and agree with the choice of a warrior. Love how you said that angels come in all forms and we can see the good and God everywhere, "even through our noses". I cried listening to the entire reading, if that doesn't say it is speaking to my heart, I don't know what does. I have a mama friend who's little one is battling cancer and I envisioned her reading this book with her little warrior on her lap. This book will do so much good, Kate. I'm so happy you are bringing your God-given talents to the world. What a precious gift this will be!" - Krysten Schwartz

"Kate, you are amazing. It’s perfectly worded and wonderfully done. I want to buy one for every classroom in America!!! (Maybe I’ll just start with Saint Boniface though!) You are a great writer and an inspirational friend!" - Sarah Reiter

"So beautiful! I am a ball of tears. You are amazingly talented! I love the story and your illustrations. I can’t wait for this to be in print so that we can read it to our little warrior. We can all learn so much from your words that speak right to the heart." - Gretchen Butler

"All heart and soul Kate!! I can feel it. AMAZING!! ....Love, love it and I love you!!!" - Amanda Wotrang
