A beloved Christmas title--with illustrations from Hans Christian Andersen Award recipient Lisbeth Zwerger! Old miser Scrooge doesn't like Christmas. He'd rather spend his time making more money. But on Christmas Eve, he is visited by four apparitions . . . One of them is his late business partner and only friend, Marley. Marley makes it very clear to Scrooge that if he doesn't change and become a better person, he will forever suffer in the afterlife. Terrified by the ominous messages from the ghosts, Scrooge is determined to change. But is there time? Back in print--with a brand-new cover and extra vignettes--this beloved Christmas story by Charles Dickens paired with Zwerger's inventive and whimsical illustrations make this a treat for collectors and the whole family alike.
