She presents just enough information for an elementary-school audience in a well-researched book that covers one of the most horrible events in history.

During his time as pope, he used a humbler, less formal approach to his office than his predecessors: a warm style that was referred to as "no frills." His common touch and accessibility, as well as his insistence that the church be more open and welcoming, quickly endeared him not only to Roman Catholics but to millions of others around the world.

Are dragons winged, fire-breathing beasts or water gods who promise good luck? Across the globe, legends of dragons have varied greatly. Stories and images of dragons can be traced back to the ancient worlds of Mesopotamia, Egypt, Greece, and Rome.

Were dragons slayed by knights in medieval Europe? Or did they bring promises of plentiful rain in Japanese folklore? Both! These are just two examples of historic dragon lore.

Su trato directo y accesible, así como su insistencia en que la Iglesia fuera más abierta y acogedora, pronto le ganaron el afecto no solo de los católicos, sino también de millones de personas en todo el mundo.
