Mother Cabrini : A Heart For The World
$17.95Add to cartDiscover the world of Francesca Cabrini in this moving book that not only educates children
about a remarkable person in American history, but inspires them with stories of her
compassion, courage, vision, and miracles.The first American citizen to be canonized, St. Frances Xavier Cabrini rescued forgotten
children, even from the dark, damp sewers of New York City, and provided them with safe
havens, loving comfort, and a quality education.Within these endearing pages, children will encounter characters much like themselves-little heroes who joined Mother Cabrini in her mission to establish orphanages, hospitals, and schools across the United States, Central and Latin America, Europe, and beyond.
Through captivating storytelling, this book introduces young minds to the incredible journeys of a woman who, despite her frailty, overcomes countless challenges to bring God’s love to the poor and forgotten. Even though Mother Cabrini was afraid of water, she received the strength to sail across the ocean more than two dozen times!
Featuring the vibrant artwork of Richard Cowdrey, Mother Cabrini’s work comes to life on every page. Cowdrey is a New York Times bestselling children’s book illustrator, fine artist, author, speaker, and educator. Richard lives in the heart of Ohio’s Amish community and enjoys traveling across the country to speak at schools and encourage students to find and refine their gifts. As children journey through the beautifully illustrated pages, they’ll be inspired to develop the compassion, bravery, and faith in God to empower their own adventures ahead.
