Charles Dickens’ timeless tale of old Ebenezer Scrooge, “a squeezing, wrenching, grasping, scraping, clutching, covetous old sinner – hard and sharp as flint from which no steel had ever struck out generous fire.” Come with us as we listen to his ghostly journey to find the meaning behind the celebrations of Christmas. In just one night, Scrooge will fly from the past to the future in a race to save his shrinking heart! Adapted and edited by Carole Whiteleather, A CHRISTMAS CAROL, is a splendid story and a wonderful way to ring in the holidays with music, laughter and wonder!
