TitleThe Best Christmas Pageant Ever
AuthorBarbara Robinson

RatingRecommended
Book ReviewA cute story set in a small town where a they prepare to produce the annual Christmas Pageant. The struggle for the responsible parent is that she must include all the town's children even the family of 6 siblings who are the most unruly and unlikable in the town. The six siblings threaten, lie, are violent and steal to get what they want including being center stage to act out the Christmas story. While attending rehearsals the siblings inevitably learn about the plot, although it is rough going for everyone else in the scenes and the play eventually is performed. The results were undeniably memorable but the attitude of the rest of the town changed for the better and the adults were humbled by the changes seen in the kids. This story is also a movie starring Lauren Graham.
