Hallelujah, it's a book! After proving itself to be the &quot;funniest calendar of the year&quot; (according to Gene Shalit), &quot;irresistible&quot; (USA Weekend), and &quot;habit-forming&quot; (Maxim magazine), the Nuns Having Fun calendar has inspired <i>Nuns Having Fun</i>, a book of endearing nuttiness.<br> <br> Catholic kitsch doesn't get any funnier. Written by Maureen Kelly and Jeffrey Stone, pitch-perfect co-authors of the nuns calendar and the <i>New York Times</i> bestseller <i>Growing Up Catholic</i>, <i>Nuns Having Fun</i> features hundreds of sisters in full habit, cutting loose and having a hoot. Here are nuns in the surf (&quot;This is even more fun than walking on water&quot;), nuns in bumper cars (&quot;We brake for Jesus&quot;), nuns in a beer hall (&quot;Ale Marys&quot;), and nuns in the museum, huddled in front of a study of nudes (&quot;It's okay to open your eyes. Sister Wendy says it's art&quot;). There are nuns on skates, at bat, at the theater, skeet shooting (nuns with guns!), even hitting the slots (you know it's for a good cause). The 125 images are from the 1950s and '60s, black-and-white and possessing a pure retro charm; the written material is all-new. Drawing on their years as parochial school students, the authors explore the lore and legends surrounding nuns, including Favorite Punishments from Nuns, Nuns Say the Darndest Things, How to Recognize a Nun After Vatican II, a Wimple Watch, and List of People Who Could Have Been Nuns.<br> <br> As Sister says, &quot;To err is human. To laugh is divine.&quot;
