A Christmas Carol was published on December 19, 1843. We’re still reading that baby 165 years later. That’s some book!These days there’s a whole boatload of movies too.
Lots of people say this book changed the way we celebrate Christmas. The author, Charles Dickens, focused on the importance of family and the joy of giving.
Before A Christmas Carol there were no Christmas cards, no Christmas turkeys, no Christmas trees in homes, no Christmas lights, and no Christmas presents. Yeah, read this and think of Christmas in a new way. Be thankful in a new way.
I say that’s the ultimate in reading fun.
