One thing we do know about his mom is that sometime before she died, she crafted Nikolas' favorite (and, frankly, only) toy — a ragdoll made from a turnip. We're also told that it's been a full two years since she passed, and for most vegetables, that'd be more than enough time for such a thing to completely mold, rot, and maybe even disintegrate. However, Nikolas' ragdoll is still going pretty strong at the start of this story, and even when Aunt Carlotta (Kristen Wiig) cruelly cooks it into Nikolas' soup, it's still green and clearly tasty enough to eat.As well as being a number one bestselling writer for adults, Matt Haig has won the Blue Peter Book Award, the Smarties Book Prize and been nominated three times for the Carnegie Medal for his stories for children and young adults. This book is about a pixie named the Truth Pixie her name is that because her aunt casted a magic spell over her so she could only say the truth . When somebody asked her something she always said the truth and that made people sad . So the Truth Pixie was always sad . One day she was walking through the road and a troll came past and he wanted to eat the pixie but she was too bad to eat . We don't get to know much about how these three children have lost their mother, but it's clear that they've been overcome with grief and also have a bit of separation anxiety from their father as a result of their loss. (Consider the scene when they desperately make sure that Nikolas will reunite with his own dad in the Christmas tale before Aunt Ruth goes any further. Gulp!) Wisely, Ruth's story doesn't dwell too much on the details of Nikolas' mother's demise, but instead, it includes a lot of details about how much everyone loves and misses her. Her impact on Elfhelm is immense, and she even makes the meanie "Mother" elf happy and sappy. then the troll asks what is the matter with you ? . The pixie says all of the bad things about the troll .

A beguiling read, filled with warmth and humour, and a vibrant celebration of the power of books to change lives."

Your class will read the passage from the story and try to find the phonics sounds within the words. Then the troll got really angry and threw the pixie away . she ended up in the town in a little house .On Christmas Eve, while she babysits the kids for their beleaguered father, Ruth regales them with the ancient story of Nikolas (Henry Lawfull), a boy who channels his own pain into a sense of purpose as he sets out to find the fabled town of Elfhelm against all odds. With just his pet mouse and a friendly reindeer at his side, little Nikolas braves the wintry abyss to find the place that once brought his mother so much joy, all in hopes of saving his father and his ailing kingdom. But even Elfhelm is suffering, and it's up to Nikolas to rekindle joy in all of the land, even as he grapples with his own grief. Haig is one of the most inspirational popular writers on mental health of our age and, in his latest novel, he has taken a clever, engaging concept and created a heart-warming story that offers wisdom in the same deceptively simple way as Mitch Albom's best tales"
