A Christmas Carol - by Charles Dickens (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

A Christmas Carol is one of the most famous, heart warming, and chilling festive stories of all time. We meet Ebenezer Scrooge here, whose name is synonymous with greed and parsimony: 'Every idiot who says 'Merry Christmas' should be boiled with his own pudding and buried with a holly stake in the heart.'

On Christmas Eve, the ghost of his old partner, Jacob Marley, returns from the grave to haunt him. Three spirits visit Scrooge in turn, each revealing his error and gradually melting his frozen heart, leading him to redemption. Scrooge's journey takes us past a rich array of Dickensian characters, including the poor Cratchit family with ailing Tiny Tim and the generous Fezziwig.

A Christmas Carol, written by Charles Dickens in 1843, captures the essence of the love, kindness, and generosity of the Christmas season. It is a timeless classic, and the story's uplifting magic is as powerful today as it was then. Complete and unabridged with all the original illustrations by John Leech
