A Christmas Carol [9780823464524]

Overview

Experience the enduring holiday classic brought to life by Caldecott Medalist and children’s book icon Trina Schart Hyman’s rich illustrations, newly available as a lavish gift edition.

This stunningly illustrated gift-sized edition of Charles Dickens’ beloved holiday tale invites readers into the world of Ebenezer Scrooge, a miserly old man whose obsession with money has distanced him from the joys of compassion, human connection, and the holiday spirit. But on Christmas Eve, Scrooge receives three unexpected visitors: three ghosts who take him on a journey through his past, present, and future. Through this journey, he learns the value of compassion, generosity, and the true meaning of Christmas.

Originally published on December 19, 1843, the first printing of A Christmas Carol had sold out by Christmas Eve and has been a holiday favorite ever since. Trina Schart Hyman’s haunting, fantastical, and irresistibly inviting illustrations add new life and dimension to this long-celebrated favorite, making this gift edition one the whole family will treasure. The volume includes six full-color plates, four black and white tall pieces, and hand-drawn decorated initials for the opening of each chapter.
