Sam Mead, Cultivating Catholics
“The election of a new Pope is an exciting moment for the Church and for the world. As a child, even as a non-Catholic, I remember being fascinated by the drama of Pope John Paul II’s election. InWe Have a Popethe drama comes alive for children by showing its relationship to the history of the Church and, ultimately, to the Scriptural foundations of the Papacy. Katherine Bogner has produced a book that will impress itself deeply upon young minds and help them embrace the man chosen to lead the Church throughthese challenging times.”
Fr. Carter Griffin, Rector, Saint John Paul II Seminary in Washington, D.C.
