Angelic children find her among young animals (7)
I believe the answer is:
cherubs
'angelic children' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'her among young animals' is the wordplay.
'among' is an insertion indicator (inserted letters are placed among others).
'young animals' becomes 'cubs' (cub is a kind of animal. I am not sure about the 'young' bit.).
'her' inserted into 'cubs' is 'CHERUBS'.
'find' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for cherubs that I've seen before include "Curbs he places on heavenly babes" , "Angelic children" , "Heavenly infants with wings" , "Angels" .)
