The Lump of Coal

by Lemony Snicket


Review this book!

A story about a moody, artistic lump of coal in search of a miracle is Lemony Snicket's concept of a cheering holiday tale. The dour, be-suited little guy rolls out of a bag of coal, but instead of barbeque season, it's a cold, gray winter. Longing to be part of a barbeque and be an artist, the lump of coal discovers that winter is not the best time to search for a barbeque or art miracle. With Brett Helquist's charmingly creepy drawings.

Media Reviews

"Snicket's trademark arch humor delivers plenty of laugh-out-loud moments en route to the happy ending."
