Klappentext

"I traveled through the seven levels of the candy cane forest, past the sea of swirly-twirly gumdrops, and then I walked through the Lincoln Tunnel..."

Ever since Elfhit theaters, audiences around the world have fallen in love with the story of Buddy, the charming (and oversized) "elf " with a heart of gold. But what most people don't know is that when the screenplay first hit Hollywood, no studio was willing to touch it. How, then, did such a risky gamble turn into one of the most beloved Christmas classics of all time?

In this laugh-out-loud oral history, comedian and costar Andy Richter goes on a mission to find out by reconnecting with the very people who brought this magical vision to life. Through exclusive interviews, hilarious anecdotes, and heartfelt reflections with key players like Will Ferrell, Zooey Deschanel, director Jon Favreau, and many others, Andy ultimately unwraps the story of how a quirky holiday film about a human raised by elves became such an enduring cultural phenomenon.

Packed with never-before-seen photos, behind-the-scenes secrets, a foreword by Buddy himself (aka Will Ferrell), and a sprinkle of festive fun, this book is the perfect gift for anyone who believes in the magic of Christmas---and knows that the best way to spread holiday cheer is by singing loud for all to hear.
