    I really liked this book and how much Scrooge changes during it. He meets three ghosts who show him how he should behave and eventually he begins to change and by the end of the book is a nicer person!

    Charles Dickens is amazing, this book is excellent. Scrooge is a miser, cold and cruel, mean to everyone and everything. Even on Christmas eve he doesn’t change his ways. However, three ghosts are deciding to try and change his cold hearted ways. Will they succeed? It’s a masterpiece of a novel, with brilliant description and wonderful vocabulary.
