This is book one in the popular adult series written for kids. Please note that this series is a VERY Christian story. The opening of this book traces the rebellious teenage children of four religious families After the reader gets to know these families, people around the world are suddenly called to heaven. Because of the disappearing people, cars and planes crash, building catch on fire and many other disasters happen. In this 146 page book the people left behind begin to realize what has happened and why they were left behind. I purchased this series because I had several requests for it.
