The Herdmans are the worst kids in the history of the world. They lie, steal, smoke cigars, and talk dirty, and they have hijacked every Christmas pageant they have ever been in. But this year, they take over the church pageant altogether, and the result is the craziest, most heartfelt Christmas pageant the town has ever seen. A funny and touching story about what Christmas is really about.
