It's time for the Christmas pageant at church but once the Herdmans get involved, it seems as it this will be the worst pageant ever! These kids lie, steal, and bonk each other off the head-and now all six kids have decided to take the best parts in the play . . . now the Wise Men want to bring pizza instead of frankincense, Baby Jesus has been renamed to Bill, and the Angel of the Lord is yelling out "Shazzaam!" But despite the unusual changes, this could be the best pageant yet. Adapted for young children, kids and parents alike will see the true meaning of Christmas captured through the Herdmans unusual antics.

Publisher's Description

▼▲

This classic Christmas story of mayhem and wonder gets a perfect picture-book makeover for a younger set of sure-to-be Herdman fans!

Lionsgate released a live action movie version of The Best Christmas Pageant Ever, directed by Dallas Jenkins of The Chosen and featuring actors Judy Greer, Lauren Graham, Elizabeth Tabish, and Pete Holmes, now at a theater near you!

The Herdmans are the worst kids in the history of the world. They lie, steal, swear, and smoke cigars. So no one is prepared when this outlaw family invades church one Sunday and decides to take over the annual Christmas pageant.

None of the Herdmans has ever heard the Christmas story before. Their interpretation of the tale—the Wise Men are a bunch of dirty spies—has a lot of people up in arms. And their wild antics cause havoc throughout the play’s production. But the actual pageant is full of surprises for everyone, starting with the Herdmans themselves, as they ultimately lead the town in finding the true meaning of Christmas. They will make this year’s pageant the most unusual anyone has seen and, just possibly, the best one ever.

Barbara Robinson has written several popular books for children, including My Brother Louis Measures Worms, The Best School Year Ever, The Best Halloween Ever, and the enormously popular bestselling novel The Best Christmas Pageant Ever, first published in 1972, which was made into a classic TV movie and on which this book was based. The play The Best Christmas Pageant Ever is produced annually in theaters, schools, and churches all over the world. Ms. Robinson has two daughters and three grandchildren.

Laura Cornell lives in New York City with her daughter, Lily (first and only), but they spend much time in California, Laura's first state in her first home. She was asked to illustrate Jamie's first book, and that became ten. Lucky is the first word that comes to mind.
