An award winning children’s author adapts the Canticle of the Creatures “in crystalline language. Grace and joy for all ages and almost any faith” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review).
 
In Brother Sun, Sister Moon, Newbery Medal and National Book Award–winning author Katherine Paterson re-imagines a hymn of praise originally written by Saint Francis of Assisi in 1224. Illuminated with the exquisite illustrations of cut-paper artist Pamela Dalton, this picture book offers a stunningly beautiful tribute to nature.

“Gorgeous.” —School Library Journal (starred review)
