Little Me cover

This is the story of little me, from pudgy, awkward child to pudgy, slightly less awkward adult - via school musicals, adolescent angst, stand-up, Shooting Stars, Little Britain, Doctor Who, love, loss, wigs and giant pink babygros. And, in case your attention span is as short as mine, it comes in a handy A to Z format. So B is for Baldy! (yes, people did shout this at me in the playground), G is for Gay (because I'm an actual real life gay) and I is for Idiot (I was born a berk. I probably even stubbed my toe on the way out).

It will warm your heart, make you snort out loud in public and there's even a catchy song in the middle. What I'm saying is, please buy this book. It is VERY good. I know I'm biased because I wrote it but it is.

To be truly unique in this world is almost impossible to achieve; this book is about someone who achieved it. Raw, honest, funny and moving -- JAMES CORDEN
A great read . . . it contains a wit and an emotional acuity far above the norm -- DOMINIC MAXWELL * * The Times * *
Classy [and] elegant * * Guardian * *
Grief isn't the point here. Rather, the book is warmth and joy * * Sunday Times * *
If you are looking for a celebrity biography that's honest, funny, cheeky and a really good read, I can recommend Little Me from A-Z * * Sunday Post * *
Standing out can be tough, but Matt Lucas is used to that. Being slightly different is just one of the many topics he chats about in this book . . . all handily arranged in A-Z format. Oh, and it's hilarious, too * * Heat * *
As you'd expect from the Little Britain creator, it's full of laughs, but it's also an honest, moving read about Matt's experiences of love and loss * * OK! * *
Matt is not only hilarious and kind, he's probably the most generous person I know. All of which is wonderfully evident in this book -- REBEL WILSON
Brutally honest and brilliantly funny, this book is as brave and warm as the man who wrote it -- GRAHAM NORTON
Funny, surprising, sad, authentic, inspirational, honest, stupid -- BOB MORTIMER
