Holidays on Ice by David Sedaris

David Sedaris s beloved holiday collection is new again with six more pieces, including a never before published story. Along with such favorites as the diaries of a Macy s elf and the annals of two very competitive families are Sedaris s tales of tardy trick-or-treaters ( Us and Them ); the difficulties of explaining the Easter Bunny to the French ( Jesus Shaves ); what to do when you ve been locked out in a snowstorm ( Let It Snow ); the puzzling Christmas traditions of other nations ( Six to Eight Black Men ); what Halloween at the medical examiner s looks like ( The Monster Mash ); and a barnyard secret Santa scheme gone awry ( Cow and Turkey ).

No matter what your favorite holiday, you won t want to miss celebrating it with the author who the Economist has called one of the funniest writers alive.
