About the Book

Sigue el asombroso recorrido del papa Francisco, cuya calidez y humildad lo convirtieron en una figura querida en todo el mundo.

Jorge Mario Bergoglio, conocido como el papa Francisco, nació en Argentina y fue el primer papa jesuita, el primero procedente de América y el primero del hemisferio sur. Durante su pontificado, adoptó un estilo más sencillo y menos formal que el de sus predecesores: una forma cercana de ejercer su cargo que fue descrita como “sin adornos”. 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.

Follow the amazing journey of Pope Francis, whose warmth and humility made him beloved around the world.

Jorge Mario Bergoglio, aka Pope Francis, from Argentina, was the first Jesuit pope, the first from the Americas, and the first from the Southern Hemisphere. 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.
