“I was delighted to see that this book has been reprinted, my current
copy is well battered and bruised. Like the Christmas decorations it comes out
once a year to be read repeatedly.
Everyone remembers their part in their schools nativity play through rose tinted
glasses. Whether your play was donkeys years ago or next Christmas this picture
book will with great detail show you what the performance looks like from the
audiences / teachers point of view.
The detailed pictures and interesting use of household props will make you want
to look at the pictures in this book again and again.” Mascull
