Street Angel: The Princess of Poverty

After 13 years on the streets of the grim, impoverished ghetto of Wilkesborough, Jesse Sanchez knows how to take care of herself even if she can't always take a bath. With dazzling martial artistry, peerless skateboarding skills, and questionable study habits, Jesse "Street Angel" Sanchez faces ninja street gangs, evil geologists, Satan worshippers, and anything else that threatens the sanctity of her 'hood. In the tradition of Harry Potter, Bruce Wayne, Annie, and Oliver Twist, make way for fiction's latest orphan superstar, Street Angel. She doesn't have much, but she'll defend it for all she's worth.
