The Best Christmas Pageant Ever
is a book written by Barbara Robinson in 1972. It tells the story of six
delinquent children surnamed Herdman. They go to church for the first
time after being told that the church offers snacks. Despite protests
from other church members, the Herdmans are given roles in the Sunday
school's Christmas play, in which they tell the Christmas story in a
nonconventional fashion. Robinson first published the story in
McCall's magazine before it was adapted into a book, which sold over
800,000 copies.
