Publisher Description
The popular Everyday Zoo series for young children by beloved and bestselling author Joyce Meyer continues with the ebook edition of The Christmas Pageant, a heartfelt and humorous story about the true meaning of Christmas. When Hayley Hippo is asked to direct the annual Christmas pageant, she decides this will be her Christmas gift to Jesus and she sets out to make everything perfect. However, after a series of disappointing mishaps, Hayley and her friends learn that they don’t need to be perfect. They realize that Christmas is not about the glittering lights, the perfect setting, or an impressive show, but about Christ.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In this addition to Meyer's Everyday Zoo series, Christmas is coming to the zoo, and Hayley Hippo has big plans for the holiday pageant she will direct. Last year the Bunny family set a high bar, with spectacular performances and a manger made of carrots. But when rehearsal is a disaster (Arnold the Aardvark rolls into a ball, among other things), Hayley despairs until she realizes that the original Christmas was also something of a mess for baby Jesus and his parents. Meyer offers a laugh-out-loud contemporary take on a familiar tale, and it's fun to see Sullivan's hippopotami, camels, and ostriches (who don't typically get much holiday attention) get into the Christmas spirit. Ages 4 8.
