A Christmas Carol is by Charles Dickens. Miss D's favorite author! This is the classic novella about Ebeneezer Scrooge, the man who hates Christmas. Scrooge is visited by his dead partner, Jacob Marley, and three ghosts - the ever famous Christmas' Past, Present, & Future. One of the most quoted books ever written, this character has been played by everyone from Alastair Sim to George C. Scott to Michael Caine and the Muppets to Donald Duck. One of the most famous tales ever written and one of the most popular Christmas stories. A story of self-realization, repentance, and change. A must read!
Ratings: 7th grade - 10 out of 10.

I read this book as a class and it was good. The wording may be a little advanced but Charles Dickens paints this amazing picture in your head. It's very had to put down. It's a classic read but that's what makes it good. Even though this book has been remade in so many ways the orignal is the best with the exception of the Mickey Mouse version.
