What if everyone’s favorite saint were to visit modern-day San Francisco? Why, he?d have an adventure, of course. When St. Francis comes to visit, there to greet him are Johnny and his dog, Sunpatch, who become the saint’s personal tour guides through the city named after him. St. Francis blesses the animals of Golden Gate Park, visits landmarks, and even rides the famous cable cars. Along the way, he embraces everyone in that vibrant multicultural city as brothers and sisters with the same loving Father.

This contemporary approach to Francis celebrates all of creation?s diversity as part of the same family and shows how Francis approached creation with a deep spirit of joy. Wintz also gently introduces the idea that Jesus’ incarnation gives value to all humans, animals and the entire created world.

Illustrated with a bright and cheerful palette, this is perfect reading for all children aged 4-8. Published by Paulist Press. Cloth.

A great gift for children.
