This year’s Christmas pageant is going to be the best ever! And Riley is
prepared to be the greatest Joseph the pageant has ever seen. The only
person standing in his way is Sam, the class bully, but Riley knows he
can get the part. What he isn’t prepared for is a lesson in forgiveness
in this endearing story about sacrifice and love.
He was so ready for this moment he could barely breathe. If he won, he knew he’d be the best Joseph the pageant had ever seen.Riley loves Christmas, and this year, he
wants something special: the chance to play Joseph in his school
pageant. Sam, the neighborhood bully and a talented singer, wants the
part too and is crushed when Riley lands the role. Riley doesn’t
care—until he learns the secret Sam has been keeping from everyone. Now
Riley has a choice to make, one that will change his view on Christmas
forever.
Told from the perspective of a
12-year-old boy, this charming tale reminds us that being like Christ is
the most important celebration of Christmas.
My Review:
Choir of Angels is a wonderful Christmas Story for children of all ages. This story has a wonderful message of doing what is right even when it is a very hard thing to do. I also love how Riley is shown that it is better to try to see people from a different perspective - that often times those who Bully others have something that is making them feel bad, so they take it out on others to get attention and try to make themselves feel better.
Riley learns a hard lesson, and this story is a wonderful one for not just the Christmas Season but all year long.
