Possibly the perfect Christmas book
There’s just something about this little book. It never fails to move me. Why is that?
A couple of weeks ago, I wrote about why A Christmas Carol is timeless. This article pretty much sums up my feelings.
I read this book with my 7- and 9-year-olds for Sarah MacKenzie’s Christmas School this year. I was surprised by how much they were able to access, despite the old-fashioned language. This tale echoes through so many other stories that they’re familiar with, namely the Grinch.
I am a fan of The Muppet’s Christmas Carol movie, as well as Mickey’s Christmas Carol (I had a bootleg VHS recording of this as a kid), but I cannot abide the Jim Carrey version.
