Ebenezer Scrooge is a miserly old skinflint. He hates everyone, especially children.

But at Christmas three ghosts come to visit him, scare him into mending his ways, and he finds, as he celebrates with Bob Cratchit, Tiny Tim and their family, that geniality brings its own reward.

This finest of all Christmas stories is beautifully illustrated with Arthur Rackham's superb line drawings.
