Think David Sedaris's Holidays on Ice-but with more ornaments and a bottomless love for the season. So, meet the family: Danny's mother, who transformed their dilapidated home into a Winter Wonderland with strategically placed wreaths and bows. His Aunt Connie, who gifted cologne, thoughtfully lifted from a department store. His father, whose aim at bonding backfired during a deer-hunting excursion. And all the other relatives who knew that somehow, through the mayhem, holiday magic would keep showing up anyway.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNow a Christmas maximalist with a garage full of Yuletide décor that has its own zip code, Danny captures the festivity, the absurdity, and the occasional profanity of the season with the warmth of someone who has never once stopped believing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHo Ho, OH NO! is a charmingly illustrated gift for anyone exhausted by Instagram-perfect holidays.

Raised in a loud, loving Italian American family in upstate New York, he learned early that the best holiday memories usually involve a little chaos and a lot of heart. Now based in San Francisco with his husband Vance and a garage full of Yuletide décor, Danny turns real-life misadventures into stories that are as funny as they are tender. His debut collection, Ho Ho, OH NO!, is a love letter to perfectly imperfect holidays and the families who make them unforgettable.","brand":"booksdeli.com","offers":[{"title":"Danny Lettieri \/ Hardcover \/ English","offer_id":48909937967261,"sku":"9798996471508","price":39.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/5648\/9373\/files\/img_3446022e-27fa-4a05-987d-ae58f34879d7.jpg?v=1789454797","url":"https:\/\/booksdeli.com\/products\/ho-ho-oh-no-twelve-true-stories-of-tinsel-bedlam-unconditional-love-9798996471508","provider":"booksdeli.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
