Description: This book tells the charming story of Giuseppe Sarto, the farm boy who became Pope. Young readers will be inspired by the life of this holy man: from his youthful days of hard work in prayer to receive the education, he needed to his years as country priest, encouraging his people to holiness; through the steady promotion to pastor Monsignor Bishop Cardinal archbishop, which he reluctantly accepted, but in which he was always became the beloved of those he served; to his days as the Holy plaintive, Pope Pius act, the only canonized pope of the century. The simple man who never forgot the poor will always be a timely example of holiness. One of the very humble circumstances, young Giuseppe Sarto had one burning desire while growing up on a farm: to become a priest. But never did he or his generous parents ever dream that he would one day sit in the chair of Saint Peter. This is the inspiring story of the humble Pope of little children, whose loved for Christ and children moved him to change the requirements for first communion so that young children as early as seven years old could receive the holy Eucharist.
