5 out of 5 stars A Great LIttle Classic!   January 4, 2009
Every year a number of new books appear for the Christmas season, seeking to show new significance to old customs, or sometimes merely to put a contemporary story in a holiday context to stimulate sales. Most of those little books disappear from memory as quickly as the year's ornaments and greenery. This book is one whose value and impact seems to grow from year to year. It can be enjoyed by kids of most ages, and it holds the interest and challenges the thinking of adults. The book is worth reading again and again--privately and out loud. The audiobook is an excellent presentation. The movie adaptation, though sharing the limits of any visual interpretation of a piece of literature, is quite faithful to the facts and spirit of the story and has a particularly poignant wrap-up. Highly recommended!


5 out of 5 stars Makes you feel so much better about your dysfunctional family!   December 31, 2008
"The Best Christmas Pageant Ever" is probably the best book ever, in my humble opinion! Believe me, it is not just a children's book whatsoever. My mother and I actually sat in the hospital an extra hour so we could finish reading it before going home! The author has quite the sense of humor, and will have you laughing along as you read this politically-incorrect book on six dysfunctional siblings who decide to be in the church's Christmas play because they were told they had "refreshments" there. It is a great gift for everyone on your list this season, and will likely become a household name. It most certainly made me feel better about my dysfunctional family! It's "political incorrectness" makes it all the more funny- you can't get this kind of sick quality humor anywhere but the 70s! I'm buying it for everyone I know!


5 out of 5 stars A Christmas classic for all ages!   December 30, 2008
I've directed the play for a couple of years and actually purchased several copies of this book to give away as prizes in a drawing for children attendees. This book is read in both public and private elementary schools locally leading up to Christmas. The book will evoke a catharsis of emotions: laughter, shock, sadness and tears of surprise and joy. It's also fantastic for those teaching moments on character, judging others and loving all people.


5 out of 5 stars Truly the best!   December 25, 2008
The best Christmas story for children that I have ever read. With wonderful humor it manages to help children really understand the Nativity.
My seven year old grand daughter was fascinated by the children's outrageous behavior but learned a lot through their innocent questioning of the story we know so well.


5 out of 5 stars A New Family Favorite   December 23, 2008
This is the first year we've read this book as a family and it has been a delightful experience. The children of all ages love the story and we laugh together every night as we read it. More than that it gets us to reinforce and teach the true meaning of Christmas in a way that they can understand, relate to and enjoy. I love this book and reading it will be a family tradition for years to come.
