A Christmas Carol
Charles Dickens
This book is a wonderful tale about a old man named Scrooge, whose business partner named Marley. Scrooge was Grumpy man who was never in the Christmas spirit. But then, one night, he was visited by Marleys ghost. It told Scrooge that next night, he would be visited by three ghosts. One of Christmas past, Christmas present, and Christmas yet to come. At one am exactly. Scrooge was terrified, the next night, Scrooge woke up because of the ghost. The ghost of Christmas past. It teleported Scrooge to a mysterious world. The ghost explained that this was Christmas past. Then, on the dirt road, came a hoard of boys riding horses. Scrooge could name each boy one by one. Then, he appeared into a room with a jolly man in it. He was the Ghost of Christmas present, he showed a shadow of Bobs family, his clerk, they were poor and they had a small goose, a tiny soup, and a bowl of berries. All because Scrooge wasn’t increasing his salary. The Ghost of Christmas yet to come visited him and showed him to a coffin. He pointed at the sheet, covering a man’s body. Scrooge had the message in his mind, take off the cover. Scrooge was to scared to do it, so the ghost took him to a graveyard. The gravestone had his name on it! The second he read it, he woke up. From now on, he treated people with respect. I like this book because Scrooge learns a very important lesson, to treat people with kindness, my favorite part was when Scrooge treated people with kindness.
