From the beloved author Father Lawrence Lovasik comes the biography of one of the most beloved saints: St. Francis of Assisi. From his days as a youth to his powerful conversion, the founding of the Franciscans, and his life of holy poverty, this simple biography introduces children to the amazing ways God can work through us when we say “Yes!” to His will.
Saint Francis of Assisi is a featured book in the Kolbe Academy's Catholic homeschool kindergarten program as it complements lessons on virtue, charity, prayer, and animals.
