Tomie dePaola adapts his 1978 The Christmas Pageant for the board book Tomie's Little Christmas Pageant, in which the boy narrator winningly tells the story of Christmas: ""Welcome to our play. It is about a baby who was born many, many years ago on the very first Christmas. This is how it all happened.""
