"God made me do it," she says. "I had planned to write the great American novel but when I sat down at the typewriter, God laughed and sent me in a new direction." Since then, Bernadette McCarver Snyder has had 32 humor/inspiration books published-and over half are the products of Liguori Publications.

Bernadette is known for books full of snickers and surprises for children, including her popular Fun Facts Series, and her wit, wisdom and reverence shine through in her books for adults such as There's a Bee in my Begonias, Sunny Side Up, and the long-time bestseller, Graham Crackers, Galoshes and God; Everywoman's Book of Cope and Hope. She says her idea of spirituality is a little laugh and a little prayer-and she is praying you will enjoy reading her books as much as she enjoys writing them.
