The Best Christmas Pageant Ever: The Best Christmas Pageant Ever (picture book edition) (The Best Ever)
<p>Laughs abound in this bestselling Christmas classic by Barbara Robinson! <em>The Best Christmas Pageant Ever</em> follows the outrageous shenanigans of the Herdman siblings, or €œthe worst kids in the history of the world.€ The siblings take over the annual Christmas pageant in a hilarious yet heartwarming tale involving the Three Wise Men, a ham, scared shepherds, and six rowdy kids. </p><p>Ralph, Imogene, Leroy, Claude, Ollie, and Gladys Herdman are an awful bunch. They set fire to Fred Shoemaker€s toolshed, blackmailed Wanda Pierce to get her charm bracelet, and smacked Alice Wendelken across the head. And that€s just the start! When the Herdmans show up at church for the free snacks and suddenly take over the Christmas pageant, the other kids are shocked. It€s obvious that they€re up to no good. But Christmas magic is all around and the Herdmans, who have never heard the Christmas story before, start to reimagine it in their own way.</p><p>This year€s pageant is definitely like no other, but maybe that€s exactly what makes it so special.</p>
