To spot one fairy is lucky, but to watch a group of fairies going about their daily business is a rare privilege indeed! So we have great pleasure to announce that Betty Bib invites you to her home, High Chimneys, to share a fairy Christmas. Once a celebrated collector of fairies, Betty now works on their behalf to promote fairy welfare and protect endangered species. So trusted is she, that her home is full to the rafters with permanent fairy residents. And with their species' typical fondness for parties, trifles and anything that sparkles, it's no surprise that fairies celebrate Christmas as a truly special time of the year. What's a fairy's favourite festive food? Who really helps Santa (while the elves get all the credit)? And what do fairies want for Christmas? Find the answers to all these questions and more in Betty Bib's Fairy Christmas.
What do fairies look like? Where do fairies come from? Where do fairies sleep? Rediscover the magic of fairies in this book which will answer all your questions and more!

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • In these hilarious essays, the Saturday Night Live head writer and Weekend Update co-anchor learns how to take a beating. “I always wanted to punch his face before I read this book. Now I just want to kick him in the balls.”—Larry David NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY Cosmopolitan • Vulture • Parade If there’s one trait that makes someone well suited to comedy, it’s being able to take a punch—metaphorically and, occasionally, physically. From growing up in a family of firefighters on Staten Island to commuting three hours a day to high school and “seeing the sights” (like watching a Russian woman throw a stroller off the back of a ferry), to attending Harvard while Facebook was created, Jost shares how he has navigated the world like a slightly smarter Forrest Gump. You’ll also discover things about Jost that will surprise and confuse you, like how Jimmy Buffett saved his life, how Czech teenagers attacked him with potato salad, how an insect laid eggs inside his legs, and how he competed in a twenty-five-man match at WrestleMania (and almost won). You'll go behind the scenes at SNL and Weekend Update (where he's written some of the most memorable sketches and jokes of the past fifteen years). And you’ll experience the life of a touring stand-up comedian—from performing in rural college cafeterias at noon to opening for Dave Chappelle at Radio City Music Hall. For every accomplishment (hosting the Emmys), there is a setback (hosting the Emmys). And for every absurd moment (watching paramedics give CPR to a raccoon), there is an honest, emotional one (recounting his mother’s experience on the scene of the Twin Towers’ collapse on 9/11). Told with a healthy dose of self-deprecation, A Very Punchable Face reveals the brilliant mind behind some of the dumbest sketches on television, and lays bare the heart and humor of a hardworking guy—with a face you can’t help but want to punch.
