This charming book begins with Crystal, a little angel,
who wanted nothing more than help around Heaven, but all of the other angels
told her she was too young to help and suggested she just go and play. Saddened, she sits upon some stairs to cry
because all she wanted to do was help in some way. Little did she know that she had a very
important job waiting for her and what an important job it was!
