Publisher Description

Includes 10 illustrations.

A Christmas Carol is a timeless and heartwarming novella by Charles Dickens that has captivated readers for generations. Set in 19th-century London, it tells the story of Ebenezer Scrooge, a miserly and cold-hearted old man who despises the festive season and everything associated with it. Scrooge's life is defined by his relentless pursuit of wealth, often at the expense of compassion and kindness.

However, on one fateful Christmas Eve, Scrooge is visited by the ghost of his former business partner, Jacob Marley, who bears heavy chains forged from a lifetime of greed and selfishness. Marley warns Scrooge of his impending doom and foretells that he will share the same fate unless he undergoes a profound transformation.

What follows is a miraculous and magical journey as Scrooge is visited by three spirits: the Ghost of Christmas Past, the Ghost of Christmas Present, and the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come (or the Ghost of Christmas Future). These spectral guides take Scrooge on a voyage through time, showing him scenes from his own past, the joyous celebrations of the present, and the grim consequences of his current path.

As Scrooge witnesses the hardships faced by those he has neglected and the joy that comes from generosity and compassion, he undergoes a profound change of heart. He discovers the true meaning of Christmas and the importance of love, family, and kindness.
