This beautiful HarperCollins Children's Classics edition of Charles Dickens's A Christmas Carol is the perfect addition to any bookshelf.

It's Christmastime in London, and overworked Bob Cratchit and his family, including poorly Tiny Tim, find joy and cheer even in poverty.



Meanwhile Bob's boss, the selfish, miserly old Ebenezer Scrooge, is deeply bitter about the festive season. However, when Scrooge is visited by the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Yet to Come, the error of his ways is revealed with haunting clarity . . .



Dickens's timeless classic - which has popularised phrases such as 'Bah! Humbug!' and 'God bless us every one!' - captures the generous spirit of Christmas and tells an uplifting story of redemption.

About the author (2022)

Charles Dickens was born in 1812 and grew up in poverty. This experience influenced 'Oliver Twist', the second of his fourteen major novels, which first appeared in 1837. When he died in 1870, he was buried in Poets' Corner in Westminster Abbey as an indication of his huge popularity as a novelist, which endures to this day.
