A Christmas Carol: Adapted for Modern Readers
$30.00
by Charles Dickens; Carol L. Marsh, editor
Illustrations/Photography by: Gary Head
First, let’s be clear: This is not Charles Dickens’ original A Christmas Carol. This book is more of an abridgment of that great work. It’s an awfully pretty abridgment, though, coming in at eleven inches tall, with padded faux maroon leather binding, gilt-edged pages, and gold-tooled title on the cover. And that’s just the exterior! The book is full of vivid, full-page watercolor illustrations of just the scenes and characters you want if you have any familiarity with the masterpiece. The writing is pretty good, too. A nice little Christmas gift for anybody who thinks they already have everything there is to have with regard to Ebenezer Scrooge and all the Cratchits.
