Prayers for All Occasions: Sanctuary and Salvation at Your Fingertips - Hardcover

In her classic, New-Yorker-esque cartoon style, Monica Sheehan shows readers how to pray for the things that really matter on a daily basis: uncurdled milk for coffee in the morning, the strength to survive an in-laws next visit, the stealth to avoid an ex-boyfriend spotted in a restaurant, and the wherewithal to buy those great shoes that might be more expensive than necessary. Prayers for All Occasions is a wry look at real prayer books, with a truthfulness to it that even the devout will appreciate: that everyday prayer can often involve even the smallest of concerns.

Monica Sheehan last delighted readers with Be Happy. She is also the co-author of 50 Reasons Not to Go Home for the Holidays and The Breakup Book, and has illustrated several more books. Sheehan is best known for the loveable character she creates for the back page of Real Simple magazine. She lives in New Jersey.
