Children will be inspired by the extraordinary life of St. Frances Xavier Cabrini, the first American citizen to be canonized. Despite her frailty and fear of water, she crossed the ocean more than two dozen times, rescuing forgotten children and founding orphanages, hospitals, and schools across the globe. Through captivating storytelling and Richard Cowdrey’s vibrant illustrations, young readers will encounter Mother Cabrini’s courage, compassion, and unwavering faith — and be encouraged to live out those virtues in their own lives.
