About the novella: Miserly Ebenezer Scrooge is visited on Christmas Eve by the three ghosts of Christmas. They
show him the joy of Christmas, and wretchedness of his own legacy. Inspired and chastened by what he has seen, Scrooge resolves to change and from then on embraces and promotes the true spirit of Christmas with kindness, generosity and warmth.
