What do you do when you find an angel with a broken wing?

There are only two things Jelly likes about the new house on Rosemary Street: the old apricot tree and the creek over the back fence.

One night, Jelly and her cousins spot something in the creek's dark waters. At first they think it's a bird, but it isn't...it's a baby angel with a broken wing. They decide to keep it. But Jelly soon discovers that you can't just take something from where it belongs and expect that it won't be missed.
