The Piccolo Missionario (or PM for friends and younger readers) is a magazine for children, boys and girls between 8 and 15 years. It claims, however, readers of all ages, mostly parents and grandparents who have kept appreciating it along its 80 years of publication.

PM is a monthly magazine of 72 coloured pages.You do not find it in newspapers kiosks. You can get it directly at home by mail by subscribing to it. It uses simple and direct language to communicate important themes, such as globalisation, intercultural relations, solidarity among people, respect to persons (in particular to children and their rights) and to nature (ecology).

It is a “missionary magazine” which narrates the life of peoples living in the south of the world and the adventures of those who, in the name of Jesus, put themselves at the service of the poorest and most abandoned through the proclamation of the Gospel and their commitment to a better and more just world.

It is an amusing, entertaining and educational magazine, full of special features, stories, witnesses, cartoons, games, jokes... and many other things that help readers to grow in their minds and in their hearts.
