A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens



(149 pages)



Ebenezer Scrooge is a miserly old skinflint. He hates everyone, especially children. But at Christmas three ghosts come to visit him, scare him into mending his ways, and he finds, as he celebrates with Bob Cratchit, Tiny Tim and their family, that geniality brings its own reward.

I love this book :) Despite all the adaptations the book is definitely the best. An absolute must read at Christmas time. A true old fashioned eye-opener!!
