Pope Francis is working on a children’s book.
The book from the 266th pope will feature a collection of letters and drawings from children ages six to 13, which were sent to the Pope from around the globe. His personal responses will run alongside these thirty handwritten letters and drawings.
Loyola Press in Chicago will publish Dear Pope Francis: The Pope Answers Letters from Children Around the World on March 1, 2016. Antonio Spadaro, SJ, and Tom McGrath of Loyola Press will edit the work. It will be available as a hardcover in English and Spanish in the United States.
