| Zusammenfassung: | "One morning during Mass, Francis heard these words of Jesus from the Gospel: 'Take no gold, nor silver, nor copper in your belts, no bag for your journey, nor two tunics, nor sandals, nor a staff; for the laborer deserves his food.' Francis took off his shoes and threw away his walking stick and the cloak he wore to keep warm. He threw away his belt and tied a piece of rope around his rough robe. Full of joy, he went up to Assisi and sang about the wonderful love of God. He was so happy that he began to dance. And he danced and danced. 'It is Francis, the son of di Bernardone, ' someone said. 'I am Francis, the poor man of Assisi, ' said Francis. This captivating story of Saint Francis and his companion Saint Clare is beautifully told in Tomie dePaola's simple and powerful style. The artist's stunning illustrations--in the deep earth tones of the Italian city of Assisi--convey the extraordinary spirit of the Poor Man of Assisi: his love, humility, and joy"--Back cover |
