Sometimes referred to as the "second Christ", Francis of Assisi remains among Catholicism's most beloved saints, his Franciscan order of monks continuing to endure over 800 years after its founding. This iMinds audiobiography of Francis examines his well-to-do upbringing in mercantile Italy, his life-changing experience as a prisoner of war, and the transformation that led him to a life of poverty and simplicity. Hosting the proceedings, Australian actress Leah Vandenberg examines Francis' experience with stigmata, his religious communion with birds and animals, and the Franciscan Order's resonance during his lifetime and beyond. Sprightly and consonant, Vandenberg imparts a wealth of information in this brief survey, sure to appeal to children and adults alike.
