You might be surprised to learn about the saint who rode a donkey backwards, the saint who helped a "criminal" escape from prison, the saint who was afraid of water, the saint who was kidnapped by pirates, & lots more! Learn how ordinary men & women did extraordinary things & became known as saints. If you think you already know all there is to know about saints, you might decide to think again. Written for grades 1 - 6. Whimsically illustrated.
With a twinkle in her eye, the author says she doesn't personally "know anything about aging." That's why she had to interview as many people as possible who do know about this very important "third stage of life"! Their stories are both fascinating and unique and offer a wide variety of attitudes toward the perks and possibilities of aging as well as insights and options for dealing with its challenges. The author adds her own humorous stories and observations throughout to help seniors appreciate and celebrate life with heavy doses of both laughter and prayer.
Here Bernadette offers sage and humorous advice to all who feel the pinch of old age and all the aches, pains, and problems that come with it. She offers prayers that focus on the positive aspects of aging--and a laugh is always part of her prescription for a better life. The artwork by Chris Sharp adds just the right touch of whimsy to her "daffy" definitions.
Presents, from a Christian perspective, miscellaneous facts and trivia about saints, symbols, human beings, animals, geography, history, and many other topics.

If your daily dealings with children alternately frustrate you and elate you, Painting Rainbows with Broken Crayons offers refreshing solace. The author takes a light-hearted look at some of the typical day-to-day experiences faced by those who deal with children and then offers them to God attached to a prayer for HELP! Illustrations throughout.
Each of these 30 stories, with imaginative illustrations of God's creatures in the zany zoo, teaches a lesson in such an amusing fashion that children learn while having fun. It is an ideal resource for any Christian education setting, as well as a great gift book for anyone hoping to help children grow in appreciation of God's creatures and their own unique gifts and characteristics.
Every woman knows that the world is a place of wonder and worry, of grins and chagrins. We accept this as normal, and we hope for an occasional bolt of brilliance to take away the doldrums and make us smile again. Wander with Bernadette through the whirl of her world, past the weeds in the garden, and the finicky kids eating popsicles, and put your life into perspective.
