Word has it that Nancy Carpentier Brown’s young- reader adaptation of G. K. Chesterton’s Father Brown mysteries will be published in April. The Father Brown Reader, illustrated by Ted Schluenderfritz and published by Hillside Press, will feature four tales about the mystery-solving priest: "The Blue Cross," "The Strange Feet" (originally titled "The Queer Feet"), "The Flying Stars," and "The Absence of Mr. Glass." This is news of great interest to my young Chesterton fans.
Hillside is a small press best known for its literature guides, home education materials, and Cay Gibson’s popular Catholic Mosaic, a guide to using picture books to celebrate the liturgical year.

How exciting!
Posted on February 26th, 2007 at 5:18 amThanks, Melissa. I’m really excited about it, too. And I started working on this so my own children could read Chesterton at a younger age. I hope your children will like the new book!
