Book Description
A modern Christmas classic, Elf burst onto cinema screens over 20 years ago and has been charming people ever since. In 2003, Buddy the Elf went on a journey to find his father, and ultimately help Santa save Christmas, and since then the world has gone Elf mad. There are only a few modern Christmas films that everyone agrees are instant classics, but Elf is definitely one. A wholesome and deeply funny film, it captures everything important about Christmas: family, acceptance, fun and - most importantly - Santa. Regularly cited as one of the best Christmas films of all time, for many people, Christmas hasn't started until they've watched Elf. Stuffed with more classic quotes, quips and wisecracks from Buddy, his human family and North Pole colleagues, as well as a cast of cynical New Yorkers whom Buddy befriends and with more treats than you'll find under the Christmas tree, the Little Book of Elf is the perfect gift for the Elf-mad member of your family, which, last time we looked, was everyone! "I just like to smile. Smiling's my favorite." Buddy. "Why don't you just say it? I'm the worst toy maker in the world. I'm a cotton-headed ninny-muggins." Buddy, to Ming Ming. "Then I traveled through the seven levels of the Candy Cane forest, past the sea of twirly-swirly gum drops, and then I walked through the Lincoln Tunnel." Buddy. 44 per cent The percentage of British people* who re-watch Elf every single year, according to OnBuy study, 2020. * Britons will spend around 14 days of their lifetime re-watching Elf.

“The book I wish I'd had growing up.” -Chanel Miller, author of Know My Name Best Books of 2019: Esquire O, The Oprah Magazine Variety Lit Hub Book Riot Electric Literature Autostraddle Finalist: NBCC John Leonard First Book Prize Lambda Literary Award New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice Selection Paste Best Memoirs of the Decade Elle Best Books of the Season Washington Post Best Books of the Month Indie Next Pick Indies Introduce Pick "A fearless debut." -New York Times "[A] gorgeous reckoning." -Washington Post "Flat out breathtaking." -Lit Hub "Gripping and gloriously written." -Elle "Utterly unforgettable." -NYLON "Unnervingly satisfying." -Oprah Magazine "Deeply compassionate." -NPR.org "Truly stunning." -Cosmopolitan Acclaimed literary essayist T Kira Madden's raw and redemptive debut memoir is about coming of age and reckoning with desire as a queer, biracial teenager amidst the fierce contradictions of Boca Raton, Florida, a place where she found cult-like privilege, shocking racial disparities, rampant white-collar crime, and powerfully destructive standards of beauty hiding in plain sight. As a child, Madden lived a life of extravagance, from her exclusive private school to her equestrian trophies and designer shoe-brand name. But under the surface was a wild instability. The only child of parents continually battling drug and alcohol addictions, Madden confronted her environment alone. Facing a culture of assault and objectification, she found lifelines in the desperately loving friendships of fatherless girls. With unflinching honesty and lyrical prose, spanning from 1960s Hawai'i to the present-day struggle of a young woman mourning the loss of a father while unearthing truths that reframe her reality, Long Live the Tribe of Fatherless Girls is equal parts eulogy and love letter. It's a story about trauma and forgiveness, about families of blood and affinity, both lost and found, unmade and rebuilt, crooked and beautiful.
