Clare and Francis: by Bimba LandmannAuthor: Bimba Landmann |
![]() |
| Around the year 1200 Francis and Clare were born in Assisi, Italy. Although born into wealthy families, they chose lives of poverty instead. Francis preached to both people and animals throughout the towns, while Clare cared for the sick in the convent of San Damiano. Both gave a joyful face to the spirituality of the Middle Ages and set examples that live on even today. Here the story of Clare and Francis is told in simple words and illustrated through striking images adorned with gold. Opening with a short chronological biography accompanied by miniatures and closing with Francis's "Canticle of Brother Sun," this inspiring book will bring the tale of Assisi's two great saints to life for readers everywhere. 0.45" H x 12.5" L x 8.94" W (1.23 lbs) 40 pages full-color illustrations throughout Publisher: Eerdmans Books for Young Readers |
