<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>The word "worst" is crossed out in the title.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong>This year's pageant is definitely like no other, but maybe that's exactly what makes it so special.</strong></p><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 "the worst kids in the history of the world."</p><p>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. You and your family will laugh along with this funny story, perfect for independent reading or read-aloud sharing.</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.</p><p>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/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><p>Called one of America's favorite Christmas stories, and now a classic television movie, <em> The Best Christmas Pageant Ever</em> has been a favorite of young readers the world over since 1972.
