Celeste the sugar angel.
Do you believe in angels?
Do you know that everybody has an angel looking after them?
Would you like to meet an angel right now ?
All you have
to do is turn over the page.
Hello my name is Celeste and I am an angel.
of the time you can't see angels but sometimes we give you little signs so
that you know we are near.
I will show you.
Look a rainbow,
some feathers,
pennies,
a dove.
These are a few of the things you can see that mean an angel is near you
but we have lots of other ways also to show you we are near.
Sometimes we even sneak inside your dreams to tell you secrets.
This is the cloud where I live. I am an extra special angel shall I tell you why,
because I have pink wings that are made of sugar. I will show you how they work.
Here's Timmy his football has burst. I will throw him a feather and let him know I am here.
What's the matter Timmy ?
Big Danny lent me his football so I could practice but I practiced so much I have burst it.
He will be so mad when I tell him he has no football I am frightened he will hit me.
No Big Danny won't hit you, promise.
My name is Celeste and I am a sugar angel, can I show you how to make everything better?
All you have to do is break off a piece of my wing and eat it
Take a piece of your wing!
I might hurt you and how can you fly if I break off some ofyour wing? and how can you fly after?
It will hurt a little bit but all I have to do is eat something chocolate or cake
or something sugary and sweet and my wing will grow back.
My wings are delicious but most of all they are magic and you can make a wish,
the only thing is Timmy, that you must wish very hard and really and truly believe that it will come true.
Can you do that? Yes I'm sure I can.
Timmy put the sugary piece of wing in his mouth, ooooh it's delicious,
now I am thinking think very hard. Think so hard that it seems real
Oh Celeste look at all the balls falling from the sky, that is what I asked for,
I asked they would fall down on me I even imagined them hitting my head . Thank you Celeste.
Well done Timmy, and always remember to say thank you three times.
Thank you thank you thank you.
Celeste was sitting on her cloud eating a nice big piece of chocolate cake to make her wing grow back.
She looked down and saw another little boy in distress.
She quickly flew down to have a look.
She floated above the lake where the boy was playing
and saw his little boat had drifted into the middle of the lake and he couldn't get it back.
Hello there, she shouted down, what's your name?
My name is Freddy. My mummy and daddy bought me a new sailboat
but it has floated into the middle of the lake and I have lost it forever.
Don't cry Freddy, my name is Celeste, I can help you. Why have you got pink wings?
Because I am a sugar angel and I help children when they have a problem.
Just break off a piece of my wing and then think of a clever way
your boat can come back to you .
Ok, said Freddy. Good, this is what you must do.
All the while you are eating the piece of my wing you must imagine your boat is sailing back
and I promise you that it will really happen.
Freddy snapped off a piece of Celeste's wing and began thinking.
His arm suddenly felt a bit cold and when he looked up
the cloud he had been wishing for came over and with one hard blow, blew his boat back to the grassy bank.
Hooooooooray, my boat has come back. I thought really hard about the wind, Celeste.
Well done, Freddy. You see it worked.Be careful to keep it near you.
And Freddy, say thank you three times.
Thank you, thank you, thank you, and he ran to get his boat.
Celeste flew back to her cloud
to eat her ice cream and renew her wing, but she had only just started when she heard a little girl shouting.
She quickly had another three licks, brushed her teeth and floated down to see what was happening.
Pickle, the little girl shouted, where are you?
Hello can I help, Celeste asked. What is your name? My name is Celeste.
My name is Penny, I wanted to let Pickle my rabbit out of his cage to have a run and now I have lost him.
A big dog lives down the road, I am frightened he will eat him.
No, he won't eat him. You mustn't think that, you must always think of the nicest possible things.
For pickle that might be to find lots of carrots.
Eat a piece of my magic wing and with all your heart make a wish.
Penny began chewing the wing and thought about some lovely fresh orange carrots.
She thought about her and pickle crunching into them.
Suddenly Penny had an idea. Let's go over to the field next door, I think Mr. Johnson grows carrots.
They went over and peeped into the field and what did they see? Pickle having a feast of carrots.
It worked, it worked! Thank You Celeste, I will let him finish his feast then go and get him.
Promise me to always say thank you three times penny and you will see all the lovely things that will happen.
I promise, Celeste.
Celeste sat on her cloud enjoying an ice-cream, it was mint and chocolate and strawberry flavour.
She was trying to decide if she would eat the chocolate doughnut afterwards when she heard a sad voice of a little boy.
She peeped over the edge of the cloud and saw a little boy looking very worried.
She stopped by some trees and watched as a small boy appeared to be struggling to decide if he was going to eat a piece of cake.
She decided to go nearer and ask. Hello my name is Celeste. You look worried.
Hello Celeste, my name is Toby.
My mum made a lovely big cake for me and my friends but I already ate it all.
There is only one piece left and I can't resist it. Oh Toby, you are greedy.That isn't good.
Why are your wings pink? Because they are made of sugar. Sugar, woooooooow!
Break a little piece off and make a wish. Wish for something that you think would make all your friends happy.
Before she could stop him, Toby had broken off a huge piece of her wing.
Ooooooow!! Toby, that hurt. I have to fly back to my cloud after, how can I do that with only one wing.
I'm sorry said Toby, munching on the huge piece of her wing.
Now make your wish
but wish so hard that it seems like it has already come true.
Toby closed his eyes and soon began licking his lips.
When Toby opened his eyes, the garden was full of the most delicious looking cakes he had ever seen in his life.
Thank you, his friends said, happy that Toby was sharing his feast with them.
Just before leaving she whispered to Toby, don't be greedy and always say thank you three times.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Celeste took longer than usual to fly back to her cloud because of the huge piece of wing Toby had broken off.
She decided to eat a nice big cream cake.
Little by little her wing started to grow back.
All of a sudden she heard a little girl crying.
From high in the sky on her cloud, she could see a sad little girl.
She watched her putting a little aquarium in front of the tree and then shouted, Come down Kipper,
Look, Victor and Hugo have come to see you.
She looked up at the tree, shouted once again, Kipper, and then started to cry.
Hello, my name is Celeste, can I help you? Hello, my name is Anna.
My cat Kipper has climbed up the tree and now he can't get down again. He has been up there for two hours.
I have called him,
I have been singing him songs,
I brought his friends Victor and Hugo out to see him.
Even my snail Brian has come to help.
You are very kind, Anna, let me help you.
Break off a little piece of my wing and wish very very hard that Kipper jumps down.
Anna snapped off a piece of her wing and as she put it in her mouth she closed her eyes tight
and imagined Kipper in her arms.
She could even hear him purring.
She opened her eyes and Kipper jumped straight into her arms.
She cuddled and kissed and stroked and tickled him,
she was so happy.
Thank You Celeste, thank you thank you.
Celeste was very tired,
she snuggled deep into her cloud and fell fast asleep.
In her dreams were beautiful feathers, rainbows, butterflies and
all the little things that angels have to let you know they are near,
So next time you see one of these little signs give a little smile and
say thank you because you now know that an angel has come to look after you.
The end
