Hungarian Summary:
A Herdman gyerekeket mindenki ismeri a környéken, mint a rossz pénzt. A hat vásott és elhanyagolt gyerek első templomi látogatása alkalmával magához ragadja a betlehemes játék főszerepeit – és ezt senki sem tudja megakadályozni. Egyikük sem hallotta még a karácsonyi történetet. A játék próbái és az előadás számos bonyodalmat, kalandot és meglepetést tartogat mindenkinek. Az olvasó számára is mélyebb tartalmat nyer a jól ismert betlehemi történet. „Minden idők legjobb karácsonyi könyve” – írta a Publishers Weekly.
English Summary:
Laughs abound in this bestselling Christmas classic by Barbara Robinson! The Best Christmas Pageant Ever follows the outrageous shenanigans of the Herdman siblings, or “the 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.
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.
This year’s pageant is definitely like no other, but maybe that’s exactly what makes it so special.
