NEW YORK: Pope Francis has written his first book for children, replying to 30 probing letters from children around the world and due for release by a US publishing house in March.

Chicago-based Loyola Press, a Jesuit imprint, came up with the idea and got the go-ahead from the pontiff. “Dear Pope Francis” will be published on March 1 in English. An edition will also be available in Spanish.
