Author Esther Jantzen discusses her middle grade novel, WALK: Jamie Bacon’s Secret Mission on the Camino de Santiago. WALK is one of the first books for kids written about the Camino de Santiago, a 500-mile walk beginning in France and continuing across Spain. It has been a pilgrims’ route since the beginning of the 9th century. Esther has walked the Camino three times, which was a life-changing experience for her, and she hopes the adventures in her book, WALK, will inspire young readers as well.
