"Irresistibly readable. Destined to become a Christmas and anytime-before-or-after-Christmas classic!" --Chris Grabenstein, New York Times bestselling author of Escape from Mr. Lemoncello's Library "Like stockings hung by the fire, this spellbinding opus may well become a yuletide tradition." -- Kirkus , Starred review "Award-winning British author Matt Haig ( To Be a Cat ) writes with warmth, wit and irreverence." -- Shelf Awareness , Starred review "Matt Haig has an empathy for the human condition, the light and the dark of it, and he uses the full palette to build his excellent stories."--Neil Gaiman, Newbery-winning author of The Graveyard Book "The definitive (and funny) history of Ho, ho, ho! My children loved it." --Yann Martel, bestselling author of Life of Pi "Humorous and heartfelt, A Boy Called Christmas will grow your heart three sizes and make you believe in magic." --Liesl Shurtliff, New York Times bestselling author of Rump "The most evergreen, immortal Christmas story to be published for decades. Future generations will receive the same comfort and joy from A Boy Called Christmas that they derive from mince pies, snowmen and creamy liqueurs." --Stephen Fry "Matt Haig puts the Happy back into Christmas." --Jeanette Winterson "A new festive classic. Funny, sad and brilliant. It turns out we only knew half the story." --Simon Mayo, BBC "An instant Christmas classic... Nikolas is a terrific character, clearly the offspring of Gerda from The Snow Queen and Roald Dahl's Charlie Bucket." -- The Guardian "Like enjoying the warmth of a good fire on a cold day . . . perfect for Christmas is every way." -- The Independent

Synopsis
Before there was Santa Claus, there was a young boy who believed in the impossible. . . . Lemony Snicket meets Klaus in this cheeky, Christmas classic-in-the-making that sparkles with wit and warmth! Now a Netflix movie starring Kristen Wiig, Maggie Smith and Henry Lawfull! Eleven-year-old Nikolas-nicknamed "Christmas"-has received only one toy in his life: a doll carved out of a turnip. But he's happy with his turnip doll, because it came from his parents, who love him. Then one day his father goes missing, and Nikolas must travel to the North Pole to save him. Along the way, Nikolas befriends a surly reindeer, bests a troublesome troll, and discovers a hidden world of enchantment in the frozen village of Elfhelm. But the elves of Elfhelm have troubles of their own: Christmas spirit and goodwill are at an all-time low, and Nikolas may be the only person who can fix things-if only he can reach his father before it's too late. . . .
