The Best Barbara Robinson CD Audio Collection Ever

By Barbara Robinson

The worst kids in the history of the world! Featured in 3 unabridged recordings narrated by Grammy-nominated Elaine Stritch.

THE BEST CHRISTMAS PAGEANT EVER: When the Herdmans storm Sunday school and take over the annual Christmas pageant, everyone braces for the worst. But no one is prepared for what really happens when the rottenest kids in the world take over the greatest story ever told. It’s a pageant full of surprises for everyone — including the Herdmans themselves.

THE BEST SCHOOL YEAR EVER: When anything goes wrong at Woodrow Wilson Elementary School, from the hexing of Bus Six to the mysterious disappearance of the kindergarten gerbil, it’s sure to have a Herdman behind it. Then a school project forces the students to think of compliments for all their classmates — including the Herdmans. Is it possible that behind their outrageous behavior there may be something good about this crazy clan after all?

THE BEST HALLOWEEN EVER: The mayor, who has had it with the Herdmans and their shenanigans, has decided to cancel the town’s Halloween. Instead, Halloween will take place at school, but there won’t be any candy! And what’s Halloween without trick-or-treating and candy? The Herdmans know the answer to this question, and in a hilarious turn of events, manage to turn the worst Halloween ever into the best Halloween ever!
