Gargoyles have been feared and misunderstood for centuries, but now Caldecott Honor artist Dav Pilkey tells the real story of these gentle stone creatures come to life. Behind their cold, stone faces, gargoyles have warm, loving souls -- yet most people don't look deeply enough to notice. Angels can see the good inside them, though, and tonight the angels will sweep down to take their silent, stone friends on a magical journey, hand in hand. Caldecott Honor artist Dav Pilkey's lyrical tale of these gentle stone creatures come to life is a reminder that everyone -- from the grievers to the dreamers to the believers -- is worthy of love.

See Inside the Book

Stone carvers design, and with the help of horses, deliver gargoyle statues to a church. The gargoyles flank a beautifully designed stained-glass window, perched along the church's steeples amidst a thunderstorm. Angels flock to give comfort and companionship to the gargoyles as they guard and protect the church.
