5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Missionary
The story of St. Francis Xavier is one that will surely hold the interest of young students as well as adults seeking to learn about this great man. Francis was born into a wealthy family and lived in a castle in Navarre. While he was still young, the Spanish declared war against Navarre, and Navarre became part of Spain.Francis had a great interest in learning. When he was 19, he set out for the 500 mile walk to Paris where he would study. Classes were held in cold drafty classrooms, and the students sat on the floor. In the winter they spread straw on the floors to make them warmer. However, Francis found partying, more than studying, to his liking.It was at the University that he met Ignatius Loyola, whom he first ignored, but then became a follower of. He became a Jesuit and realized his strong desire to be a missionary. I think he might possibly have been the greatest missionary ever. He put his own safety and health at risk in order to reach as many souls as possible. He travelled to several countries to spread the Word of God. He had a great power to touch souls, and many converted because of his teaching. A map is included in the back of the book that shows the great distances St. Francis travelled.

I began collecting Vision Books for my 11 y/o son to read at night. He loves to curl up with these stories before he goes to sleep. The books in this series are well written and exciting for the reader. He's even convinced me, his mom, to read them as well. I love that our son is not only learning about the lives of a saint, but he's learning how to live our Fatih.
5.0 out of 5 stars My 9 year old thoroughly enjoyed reading about the life of Saint Francis
My 9 year old thoroughly enjoyed reading about the life of Saint Francis. She loved the adventures, but she was also very much impressed by the sacrifices and efforts from Saint Francis to fulfill God's will. It was a good conversation starter on how we can reply to God's call in our own every day lives.
5.0 out of 5 stars Good Book
This book really showed St. Francis' life and it was very well written. Definitely recommend
5.0 out of 5 stars A great adventure story for kids!
The pace of this book is very fast and will hold the attention of children in a pretty broad age range. It should hold the attention of children while they learn about St. Francis Xavier and his companions.
