A Christmas Carol is a classic everyone should read at least once. I on the other hand have had to read it three different times for school. I love how watching how Scrooge's character really does change for the better.

I did it! I finally read A Christmas Carol and not just bits and pieces of it! I admit that Dickens is not my favorite author! I'm trying harder to love the classics! A Christmas Carol is a favorite story of mine I just prefer it via video! :) It's a beautiful story of forgiveness and redemption and finding Christmas in our hearts!

My Christmas holiday themed book. I like the morals in this book but of course Dickens has to go on and on about details. Not that I don't like Dickens, thats just his style.

Reread it again as an audiobook on a podcast read by Marilyn Lightstone.
