A Christmas Carol

No holiday season is complete without Charles Dickens's timeless tale of redemption starring the tightfisted Mr. Scrooge, the long-suffering Bob Cratchit, kindhearted Tiny Tim, and the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Future. But A Christmas Carol was only the first and most famous of Dickens's holiday tales. In this edition, everyone's favorite misanthrope appears in company with four more Dickens stories-The Chimes, The Cricket on the Hearth, The Battle of Life, and The Haunted Man-that further develop the Chistmas spirit Dickens did so much to invent.
