by Monica Sheehan Hardcover, 2007 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-law’s 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. 16898$9.95 Become a Member of the Chicago History Museum today and save!
