Opis

What would happen if we could go back in time and have God say "yes" instead of "no" to one of our prayers? The strong-willed girl in this middle-grade novel gets a chance to find out. Though Crystal prays desperately for God to stop the move her family plans to make to a new town, she is devastated when God allows her house to sell. By the time the moving van arrives, Crystal is no longer on speaking terms with God. She arrives in a new school and discovers the substitute teacher is an angel who has been sent to deal with her problem. Crystal wakes up the next morning to find herself back in her home town. Since she is the only one who remembers the move, life goes on just as it would had the family decided not to move. At first delighted with God's reversal of decision, Crystal soon finds that staying in Glenville creates problems she never expected. As her troubles mount, Crystal sees the wisdom in God's original answer.
