A Christmas Carol

'Christmas is the perfect time to share the magic of reading with your family and Scrooge's journey to redemption is still as thrilling, moving and joyous over 175 years after it was written. This has to be the perfect Christmas book' - Cressida Cowell

Ebenezer Scrooge is a bitter and selfish old man, and worst of all . . . he hates Christmas! But this Christmas Eve there's a surprise in store for Scrooge when four spooky ghosts pay him an unexpected visit. Over the course of the night, the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Christmas Present and Christmas Yet to Come show Scrooge how his mean and nasty behaviour has affected everyone around him . . .

But is it enough to help Scrooge change his ways, just in time for Christmas Day? Or is he destined to remain miserable for ever?

Perfect for any young book lover - Charles Dickens' much-loved classic is a wonderful story for all the family to share at Christmas.
