'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.

Charles John Huffam Dickens (1812-1870) was born in Portsmouth, Hampshire, England. In 1824, his father was imprisoned for debt, so Charles was sent to work in a shoe-dye factory. He later became a clerk in a law firm, a shorthand reporter in the courts, and a parliamentary and newspaper reporter. In 1833, Dickens began to contribute short stories and essays to periodicals, heralding the start of a glittering and prolific literary career. He married Catherine Hogarth in 1836, with whom he had nine surviving children before they separated in 1858. Dickens died suddenly at home on 9 June 1870, leaving behind an internationally acclaimed canon of work, including OLIVER TWIST (1837), NICHOLAS NICKLEBY (1838), DAVID COPPERFIELD (1849-50), BLEAK HOUSE (1852-53), LITTLE DORRIT (1855-57), A TALE OF TWO CITIES (1859), GREAT EXPECTATIONS (1860-61) and OUR MUTUAL FRIEND (1864-65). He was buried in Westminster Abbey, London, England.
