Still, he tries hard to believe in happiness, living with his father in the second smallest cottage in all of Finland. Then one day his father goes missing, and Nikolas must travel to the North Pole to save him.\u003c\/p\u003eAlong 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 . . .\u003cbr\u003e     \u003cp\u003eSparkling with wit and warmth, \u003cem\u003eA Boy Called Christmas\u003c\/em\u003e is a cheeky new Christmas classic-in-the-making from acclaimed author Matt Haig and illustrator Chris Mould.\u003c\/p\u003e   \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReview(s):\u003cbr\u003e“Like stockings hung by the fire, this spellbinding opus may well become a yuletide tradition.”\u003cbr\u003e“There’s plenty to please fans of Roald Dahl, Lemony Snicket, and Adam Gidwitz: offbeat humor with the ultimate satisfaction of overcoming the impossible, helping humanity, and achieving one’s dreams. A popular choice for Christmas or year round.”\u003cbr\u003e“Perfectly captures the spirit of Christmas, and Mould’s scratchy ink-pen illustrations bring charm and humor to the page. Misguided elves, a mouse that unflaggingly believes in the existence of cheese, and flying reindeer (naturally) all unite under one boy’s faith in the impossible. A heartwarming holiday adventure.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eISBN:  9781443450232\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ","brand":"HarperCollins","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":41120759742670,"sku":"9781443450232","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0600\/7029\/7806\/products\/9781443450232.jpg?v=1652101548","url":"https:\/\/pickwickbookshop.com\/products\/9781443450232","provider":"Pickwick Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
