Nicholas: A Manhattan Christmas Story (Dramatic Reading)

About this book

This fanciful children's story was one of the 1925 Newbery Honor books (published in 1924). Moore's novel blends an interesting tour of an early-twentieth-century New York City with U.S. history and magical dream-like scenarios that children will love. - Summary by Lynette Caulkins Cast List Narrator: LCaulkins Nicholas: Waffle Ann Caraway: Jenn Broda John Moon: Aaron Sproule Brownie: Little Peanut Troll and Merry Man 3: Scott Caulkins Lucky and Elephant 2: Cheryl Hedrick Madison Square Fairy and Fiora Vero: Meredith Trinity Bishop, Baron Munchhausen, Elephant 1, Mr. Vero, and Traffic Policeman: Jim Hedrick Joe Star: David Purdy St. Nicholas, Beef Eater 1, Telescope Man, and Tower Guard: Larry Wilson Washington Irving, Peter Stuyvesant, Postman, and Daniel Lyons: Greg Giordano 1st Library Lion: Kevin S 2nd Library Lion, Knickerbocker Rooster, and Miss Vero: llamaart Colonel Flanagan and Mysterious Taxi Driver: Andrew Gaunce Aladdin and Lt.
