And so the girl gave her the coin, and the angel gently took her hand. “Now, let’s find out what you like to do, and let you do it!” The girl rose, and holding the angel’s hand, she walked right through the bars of the jungle gym like magic!

“Are there other kids like me in your balloon?” the girl asked.
“Just a couple,” said Mary, “but there are lots more out there—and we’ll find them all, won’t we!”
The girl nodded. “Yes—before the Chocolate Ogre does.”
Together they climbed into the silver airship, and rose into the Everlost sky.
