In the morning Sister Bertrille learned that Carlos Ramirez was building a discotheque on the land she wanted for a playground: in the afternoon she found that Ortega y Ortega, a sworn enemy of the church, legally owned half of the Convent...

Both were men to reckon with: Ramirez, young and worldly, and Ortega, with the native cunning of a fox.

But neither separately or in tandem were they a match for tiny Sister Bertrille, for no matter how they stacked the deck, she could always trump their ace: she could fly!

Saving Carlos Ramirez from himself was becoming a full-time job for Sister Bertrille. She had to convince him that he couldn't buy his way into heaven protecting two young delinquents for the wrong reasons.

Nor were the rebellious youngsters themselves any help; they could understand Carlos's motives easier than Sister Bertrilles.

And then, unexpectedly, there came the moment of truth: Carlos and the boys had to choose between right and wrong. Sister Bertrille's faith in them never wavered — still, a little flight insurance wouldn't hurt, would it?

And so she tilted her cornette into the wind, said a silent prayer, and took off...

They sure were a kooky, way-out family: Ferdinand, the father — a theatrical agent without a star; Hercules, the grandfather — an inventor without an invention; Maria, the beautiful daughter — an actress who couldn't act; and Tomas, the 11-year-old son — who watched over them like a nervous mother.

It figured that Sister Bertrille would stumble on them and move them all into the convent. But who expected Ferdinand to discover a star ("Would you believe a nun who flies?")...or Tomas to hound wealthy Carlos Ramirez to marry his sister...or Hercules to finally create his greatest invention?

Life is never simple for Sister Bertrille. But as long as there's a strong breeze and a cornette to tilt into it, the tiny Flying Nun will wing her way out of any earth-bound dilemma...

Word of strange "air activity" around San Tanco had finally reached Washington, and the convent was being visited by a secret congressional committee! There were Air Force Major Hackington, who couldn't see a purple cow if he fell over it; Professor Hoople, self-styled expert on UFOs; and pretty Piety Jane Pacemonger, daughter of a congressman, to whom expense accounts were the greatest invention since false eyelashes!

Sister Bertrille knew she was responsible for the UFO rumors — but who could guess that the befuddled visitors would actually see "little green men from Mars" on the convent grounds?

As usual, Sister Bertrille tried to straighten things out — and succeeded handsomely in adding to the confusion...

It all started out so simply — Sister Bertrille and Carlos Ramirez, her long-suffering friend, were taking two of the children on a picnic in the mountains. But nothing Sister Bertrille ever did ended simply, no matter how it started out.

Neither did the picnic...

For the little party got hopelessly lost and made the unfortunate mistake of trusting Sister Bertrille, an ex-girl scout, to lead them out. She led them out, all right — directly into the heart of a secret military installation deep under the mountain, past highly-trained guards, past elaborate spy-trap devices, past sophisticated "early warning" systems — right into the waiting arms of nervous Major Cleaver, whose suspicious nature saw a spy in every stranger, and a bomb in every picnic basket.

Convinced that spying was for the birds, Sister Bertrille tried to set things right — and introduced the military to the world's greatest weapon: utter confusion!
