Description
A Wayne in a Manger is the hilarious compilation of nativity stories by Gervase Phinn
A delightful festive gift bursting with laughter, warmth and the magic of childhood Christmases
Discover some wonderfully funny and touching nativity play anecdotes, including children forgetting their lines, ad-libbing, falling of the stage, picking their noses and showing their knickers.
One brilliant anecdote tells of an innkeeper who generously says there's plenty of room for Mary and Joseph, while another child, jealous of Joseph's starring role, allows Mary to come in but not Joseph, who can 'push off' ...
There's the baby Jesus who suddenly pipes up with 'My name is Tammy, are you my Mommy?' and funniest of all, Mary who tells Joseph, 'I'm having a baby - oh and it's not yours'.
Gervase Phinn's A Wayne in a Manger is the perfect gift this Christmas.
