The Littlest Angel Page #2

to have their own space

to live wild and free.

No masters telling them

what to do up here,

so the animals all stick

to their side of heaven.

Exactly. So you're going to have

to come up with a better excuse

than "l was chasing a doggy."

All right, everyone, get ready

for your flight training exam.

Angels we have

heard on high

Sweetly singing

o'er the plains

And the mountains in reply

Echoing

theirjoyous strains

Gloo-ooo--

Gloria...

ln excelsis--

Just lip-synch and bang the cymbals

when l give the signal.

ln excelsis deo

Glo-ooo-ria

ln excelsis deo--

- Huh?

- Go see the angel of peace.

lt's the only way the rest

of heaven will get any.

And so the littlest angel went off

to his judgment at the hands

of the angel of peace.

He knew things weren't

going well for him in heaven

and he wondered what they'd do

to a little angel who just wasn't

happy in the grandest place

in all the universe.

Littlest. Littlest.

Littlest?

Littlest.

So you're the one

who's been making heaven

so unheavenly.

Um, l guess so.

Why don't you

tell me all about it?

And suddenly before

he knew it, he was explaining

how very difficult it was for a boy

who suddenly finds himself

transformed into an angel.

And no matter what Alban had told her,

he'd only swung once.

Well, twice.

Oh, all right. Then he'd swung

three times on the pearly gates.

That was only

for something to do.

But heaven is full

of wonderful things to do and see

- and be.

- lt's not that heaven isn't beautiful.

- But earth was really great.

- lndeed.

What did you like so much?

Well, you know it was created

by God himself

and there were trees to climb

and brooks to fish

and caves to play hide 'n' seek,

the swimming hole and sun

and rain

and dark and dawn

and the thick mud that

squished between your toes.

And here, even though

l try to do angel stuff,

l miss things the way

they were on earth.

l'm going to show you

all heaven has to offer

once you've earned

your full-grown angel wings.

Yeah well,

how come mine

never seem to grow?

Simple, you haven't completed your

good deeds class at the academy.

You mean if l do that, l'll grow big

wings like yours and Logan's?

Not quite.

For you see, Littlest,

everything you've been

learning so far

makes it easier for you

to be a good angel.

Next you'll be required

to master minor miracles

in good deeds class.

When you've done that,

then you'll be required

to travel to earth

and perform three

honest-to-goodness

unselfish good deeds

and earn your angel wings.

But for now,

l think you'll find

this area of heaven

has a little bit more of what's been

making you so homesick.

Wow!
