Lets not attack the messenger here guys. I do find this Pope very cryptic in where he actually stands. I did cross reference this story and it has shown on multiple news sources.

Also Gay websites are reporting it, but I didn't want to link to the Advocate due to other photos or such that will violate rules.
Pope Francis sent a blessing to the author of a children's book that has been censored in Italy due to its same-sex themes.
Francesca Pardi, author of Piccolo Uovo or Little Egg, received a letter dated July 9 from the Vatican's secretariat of state. A blessing from Pope Francis was enclosed in the letter, according to Father Manuel Dorantes, assistant to the director of the Press Office of the Holy See.
Piccolo Uovo traces the journey of an unhatched egg in search of a family. Along the way, it encounters different family structures, including two lesbian rabbits raising a family, a pair of gay penguins, a hippo who is a single parent and two kangaroos who have adopted polar bear cubs.
