A Christmas Carol
50 pages, 1843
This full-color, unabridged edition of A Christmas Carol by local author Charles Dickens with classic drawings throughout by local illustrator Arthur Rackham offers an entertaining read for the whole family and a great gift idea.
The tale was written in October 1843 to supplement local author Charles Dickens’s income, gave him the opportunity to “strike a sledgehammer blow” for the poor, and proved to be his literary masterpiece. It is the tale of a miser who gets given a second chance. From an author needing to get out of debt. A story of redemption and forgiveness. It is the story of Christmas.
In A Christmas Carol, Charles Dickens shows us that it's never too late to change. The main character, Scrooge, starts off as a grumpy, greedy old man, but by the end of the book, he's transformed into a kind, generous person. So, if you're feeling stuck in a rut, take a look at Scrooge's journey for some inspiration.
Dickens makes it clear that being generous isn't just about giving money. It's about being kind, caring, and understanding towards others. So, if you're looking to make a positive impact in your community, start by showing a little more compassion.
A Christmas Carol reminds us that time is precious. Scrooge regrets wasting his life being mean and selfish, and wishes he could go back and do things differently. So, don't wait until it's too late to start living the life you want. Start now!
In the book, Scrooge sees how his actions affect those around him. He realizes that his behavior has a ripple effect, impacting not just his life, but the lives of others as well. So, next time you're about to make a decision, think about how it might affect the people around you.
Charles Dickens beautifully captures the true spirit of Christmas in this book. It's not about presents or fancy dinners, but about love, joy, and togetherness. So, this holiday season, try to focus less on material things and more on spending quality time with your loved ones.
