About this listen

The Herdmans plus Halloween have always spelled disaster. Every year, these six kids, the worst in the history of Woodrow Wilson School and possibly even the world, wreak havoc on the whole town. They steal candy, spray-paint kids, and take anything that's not nailed down.

Now the mayor has had it. He's decided to cancel Halloween. There won't be any Herdmans to contend with this year, but there won't be any candy, either. And what's Halloween without candy? And without trick-or-treating? The Herdmans manage to turn the worst Halloween ever into the best Halloween ever in this uproarious sequel to The Best Christmas Pageant Ever.

This brings back so many memories from 40 years ago! My 3rd grade teacher read us the Christmas Pageant story and then followed up with the other 2 books! I also love the narrator! I adored her as an actor and now I'm looking for anything else she may narrate! I listen to these stories while cleaning the house and get done in no time!

Forgot about the Herdmans!
