...a picture book about the life of Pope Benedict XVI. Has anyone heard anything about the book? I just saw it at Ignatius Press site and see it is scheduled for release later this month. I'm always excited to see a new picture book and especially Catholic ones . I hope it is good.

Thinking alike at present, I was going to post on this yesterday and didn't get around to it, wondering if anyone had seen it. I had just gotten the latest Catholic World Report in the mail and it advertised this book, it looked really lovely and I'd like to get hold of this book in time. It seems he LOVES cats, one of my daughters will love this.

I saw Raymond Arroyo mention this on The World Over Live a few months ago. It sounded absolutely entrancing. I am going to preorder it....I found a review of it here.

Sounds like a good one and the pictures make me want to see more    When anyone receives it, please review it. I'd like to TRY to stick to a budget somehow , but good books are worth it, and I KNOW that the library here won't carry this one.

God bless,
Christine

On behalf of Paula, who works for Ignatius Press:

Quote:
A lady in your forum asked about the availability of "Joseph and Chico", a biography of Pope Benedict XVI, written by a cat he had in Germany. The book arrived in our Colorado warehouse today and it's a real treat for readers of all ages:

link to Ignatius product page

It's a large color hardcover with a durable, glossy book jacket.
