Rating: Summary: magical story Review: I think this book is very well written, it gives a sence that you were really there in old England. Dickins explains every thing right down to the point you feel like your at the movies. I think this book is one of the best of the century.
Rating: Summary: Horror of the Holiday Review: I think the book was very understandable and it had very little words that were hard to understand.It had all of its chapters labeled.This book really puts a young person in thought and even some adults.
Rating: Summary: A christmas for tiny tim.I Review: I think this book would be a good book because it would have adventure and scaryness but a good book for a middle schooler and a adult.
Rating: Summary: Everyone knows the stoy, but have they read the book? Review: ALmost everyone knows the story of the Christmas Carol, either through the muppets or Bill Murray, but few haave read the book.You should read this book, unlike many of Dickens other books it is simple and not over long. He simply tells the way it happened and no flowery writting, plus many scenes that are skipped in almost every version.
Rating: Summary: Wonderful.. Read it and Catch the Christmas Spirit Review: It is easy to see why A Christmas Carol is such a classic. Big virtues are explored and the magic of the Christmas season causes the spiritual redemption of Ebeneezer Scrooge.The Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future are a wonderful device to show the evolution of one of God's innocents (Scrooge) to his mercurial state and then finally to a point where his spirit reawakens to the important parts of life. Uplifting and moving. (By the way, I highly recommend the 1983 George C. Scott movie version.)
Rating: Summary: Bah Humbug to all who dont read this holiday classic! Review: Charles Dickens' Christmas Carol is read annually along with any and all movie versions. The tale is so simple yet so full of detail. Scrooge is every man who lets life get him down until something changes the status quo. The use of spirits to guide a person to a better path in life is so in tune with the 1990s where everyone is searching for miracles whether they involve spirits or angels or whatever. A true classic that has withstood the test of time and will continue to delight for generations to come.
Rating: Summary: A Christmas Carol Review: A Christmas Carol is such a moving book. I think that anyone who enjoys such books should try and get around to reading it. It is a very inspirational novel and teaches a few very valuable lessons. I think it is wonderful how Dickens' includes so many "innocent" children in his novels. They just bring so much joy and warmth to the story. I want to conclude by saying..." For all you Bah Humbugs out there, there are more important things to life other than money and greed. And this book will seriously turn you around, and it will keep you hooked until you put it down."ΓΏ
Rating: Summary: A ghost story Review: I read the book A Christmas Carol by: Charles Dickens, abriged by:Vivian French, illustrated by: Patrick Benson. I really loved this story, because of how it had the ghosts in it. It shows how people can change just like that. My favorite ghost was the ghost of Christmas Present and how that ghost shows how nice some people can be and can't be. You should really read this story...it's the most common story about Christmas. These are all of the ghosts in this story, the ghost of Christmas present, the ghost of Christmas Past, Marley's ghost, and the ghost of Christmas Yet to Come. Enjoy this story.
