- Book Synopsis
- Even the youngest readers can enjoy Charles Dickens's classic Christmas tale in this beautifully illustrated picture book version of the holiday favorite, simple to read but with all the magic of Dickens's voice preserved. Follow miserly Scrooge as he is whisked through the night by the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Yet to Come in order to face his selfish treatment of Jacob Marley, Bob Cratchit, and Tiny Tim. Families will enjoy reading this shortened version of Dickens's story together, with its warm illustrations that capture every twist and turn.
