Good Habits

Sister Luce loves her quiet life in the convent in the Italian Apennine mountains. In the company of her hens, among chestnut groves and fir forests, the shy young nun is at her happiest. But Mother Speranza has invited a TV crew into their convent to shoot a documentary about their life, and she asks Sister Luce to be the convent's poster girl. Never has Sister Luce's vow of obedience been so sorely tested, especially when four worldly women come to share the convent's life under the camera's lens. Between a Santa dash and a carnival float, a forest sit-in and a song competition, Sister Luce becomes performer, protester, agony aunt and equestrian nun as she learns to conquer her fears. Divided into thirty-one short self-contained small chapters, this popular series from The People's Friend magazine includes one brand-new story never published before.
