So You Were Born

The words of this book are drawn from Pope Francis’s own words on children and families. Beautiful illustrations accompany Pope Francis’s simple words, which communicate the importance of each child and family.  Each child is “unique and unrepeatable,” and is loved into existence by both their parents and God. Mothers and fathers help their children to grow through their loving actions, and families provide the love and belonging that help children thrive, love, and be “a sign of hope for the world.”†
