Fantastic book
I bought this book for my future grandchildren so that they could learn at a young age about this wonderful saint and his simple life of service. I believe that all religions could enjoy this book. Robert F. Kennedy Jr is a true follower of St Francis and his way of life. I was impressed that he and his wife and children say the prayer of St Francis every night. This is a beautiful tradition that I believe his children will probably pass on to future generations. St Francis believed in Serenity, Silence, Simplicity, Song, Service and Sincerity. Our world would be a better place if more people adopted these principals
A Joyous Picture Book and More
Indeed, the superb Illustrations bring to life the joyous thoughtful text of this book on Francis of Assisi. A Franciscan Sister of Christian Charity who has been a pilgrim to Assisi,I affirm the beautiful realism of the paintings that depict the birth place of this 13th century saint.This story begs to be told many times.
A pleaseant book to read to children.
This is a good telling of the life of St. Francis of Assisi geared for parents to read to their children.

Beautiful book that I have shared with friends. Sender was prompt and the book delivered in new condition.
overwhelmingly done
This is a large hardcover book, and it is overwhelmingly beautiful. It is beautifully illustrated, and beautifully written. Robert Kennedy Jr. is a person I feel I know now, and I would say he is a remarkable soul. His father must be very proud of him for writing this holy book...it will touch many souls and lead them closer to heaven...where his father is now.
This book may be for children, but I am an adult. I will treasure it always and pass it down. It sits on my coffee table, and I framed the piece of art of Saint Francis attached in the book. It hangs on the wall above my couch. Needless to say, this book is a holy treasure from an honorable man.
