The Pope's Cat Collection

“My students LOVED the Pope's Cat series! What an ingenious way to teach children about the Catholic faith through the eyes of a lovable, mischievous cat. Each title easily aligns the Liturgical calendar and can be used to supplement many faith-based lessons. I also found that it provided great opportunities to coordinate among curriculum areas like art, geography, and history.”—Mrs. Kris Hoffay, Principal, St.Jude's Elementary School, Wyantsville, NY

The Pope's Cat
This is the story of a stray cat, Margaret, born on the Via della Conciliazione in Rome, how she’s adopted by the Pope, and then “rules” the Vatican from museum to floorboard! No one has a closer view of what’s happening in the world’s tiniest nation, Vatican City, than Margaret. But she wasn’t always Margaret, and she wasn’t always the Pope’s cat. She started out as a stray on the streets of Rome, and there are those in the Vatican who wish she’d never been allowed inside. Follow Margaret in the first book of the Pope’s Cat Series as she explores the ‘Ins and Outs’ of the Catholic Church.

Margaret's Night in St. Peter's (A Christmas Story)
In this delightful new story from their lives, the Pope takes Margaret on a tour of St. Peter's. But when he's called away to work, Margaret gets lost in the world's largest church. She meets saints, children, tourists, and the artist Michelangelo's famous statue, The Pieta, before being reunited with the Pope as Midnight Mass is about to begin. Celebrate Christmas with Margaret and the Pope in the excitement of St. Peter’s Square in Rome!

Margaret's First Holy Week
This adventure has Margaret experiencing the prayers, penitence, liturgy, and excitement of Holy Week in the Vatican and Rome. She learns about Jesus and the meaning of his Passion, visits important new places such as The Sistine Chapel, where she seems to pray beside the Pope, and the Roman Colosseum, where she learns that many early Christians were martyrs for their faith. Join Margaret as she learns about one of the most celebrated liturgical feast days.

Margaret and the Pope Go to Assisi
In this fourth installment of "The Pope's Cat" series, Margaret and the Pope travel for the first time together away from the Vatican and out of Rome. They go by train to the Umbrian hill town of Assisi, a place of pilgrimage for Christians all over the world who want to remember the life of St. Francis of Assisi. Together they visit the great Basilica named for St. Francis, greet Franciscan friars at the monastery, attend a World Day of Prayer for Peace, meet religious leaders (each, it seems, with a very different hat!) from around the world, and see evidence of the spirit of St. Francis all over town.

Before Margaret Met the Pope
As a prequel, this story tells of the conclave that elected the Pope who would one day meet Margaret on the Via della Conciliazone. It turns out, Margaret was somehow there, watching, in the Sistine Chapel as the votes were cast. Discover the beginnings of Margaret’s journey with the Pope.
