Summary
Told through the kindly view of his guardian angel, this grandly illustrated story introduces children to the remarkable life of St. Francis of Assisi – the joyful saint who heard God’s call and gave all he had to follow Him.
Born into wealth and comfort, young Francis was the “life of the party,” known for his laughter, music, and fine clothes. But when adversity turned his heart toward Heaven, Francis began listening for a different voice – and soon heard the gentle call of God.
