Product Description
"Habit-forming" (
Maxim) indeed! Nuns Having Fun is one h*ll of a good time. Featuring charming black-and-white photographs dating back to the 1950s and '60s, the calendar depicts nuns playing, goofing, laughing, and just having a blast—a celebration of a sweet, lighthearted, and completely unexpected side of convent life. Here are sisters swimming. Sisters on swings. Sisters on scooters, sisters playing cards, and sisters on skis. Even sisters in a rock band (shades and all).

Girls Just Want to Have Fun!
Revealing a sweet, lighthearted, unexpected side of convent life, NUNS HAVING FUN returns with a year of Sisters playing, goofing, laughing and letting loose. Dating mostly from the 1950s and 1960s, these buoyant black-and-white images celebrate the simple pleasures of a more innocent age.
Here are nuns enjoying a day at the beach. Nuns raising a pint. Baseball nuns—on the field and in the stands. Nuns skating, nuns sledding, and one formidable nun demonstrating her karate kick (wearing a habit of course, instead of a
gi). Witty commentary is provided by Maureen Kelly and Jeffrey Stone, authors of the hilarious bestsellers
Growing Up Catholic and
More Growing Up Catholic.
