The christmas carol was an okay book because I already know the story and what happens since we did it twice for a play in drama. The book makes me think about christmas given that is is about christmas. The christmas carol also does not make me think of anything else, it was just more one of those books that was fun to enjoy and to read. in the book it shows how that even if you are the most unhappy and stale person you can change, into someone who is a pretty decent person. also that even with some bad life choices you can turn it around some what quickly if you put some effort into it. i would say that my favourite part of the book was when Scrooge was visited by the first ghost because i thought that it was kind cool that three ghosts were able to turn Scrooges old unhappy life around. one of the things that i found cool or interesting about the christmas carol was that how that author Charles Dickens made it so that the ghosts would change scrooges life because scrooges does not really seem like he would be the type of person that would listen to ghosts about his life, but then again the ghosts were not just some random ghosts they were from the past, present, and future.
