With exquisite artwork and evocative text, this original fable
explores the events of Jesus' life, and demonstrates
the role of the Virgin Mary as the benevolent agent of God's
people. Reduced to desolation by a king and prince who feel
they have been wronged, the residents of a
once-favored village must seek help from the queen, a native of
their devastated town. Religious subjects are presented
clearly in an allegorical style that proves entertaining,
and also serves to provide children with examples
of virtue and good behavior. Â
On the day of a royal wedding in a kingdom where everyone has grown careless in the practice of their Catholic faith, a poor widow helps reveal the true value of the Mass.
This title is suitable for ages 5 to 7 years. While other
children's religious titles focus on Saint Francis of Assisi as an
adult, few, if any, have concentrated on the early life of the
patron saint of animals and the environment. Stunning illustrations
punctuate this beautifully told story of Saint Francis as a boy as
he communes with nature and treats even the fiercest of animals - a
hungry wolf - with the same compassion he would show his
grandmother. In a fearless display of courage, tolerance, and
understanding, the young Francis makes peace with the wolf,
foreshadowing his teachings of harmony with the world around us and
man's duty to protect nature.
