Francis, the Pope for Kids

Follow Pope Francis on his journey from Argentina to Rome and beyond This whimsical, full-color picture book shows children what Pope Francis was like as a child, a student, and a young adult, including his interests in science and soccer. The high points of his religious life, including his election as pope and his canonization of John XXIII and John Paul II, are described in language young children can grasp (for unfamiliar words, there's a glossary). And families will appreciate the included guide for continuing the faith conversation. For children in pre-kindergarten through second grade.
