A Christmas Carol in Rhyme

Snow falls on London, candles flicker, and a miser hears midnight chimes that change his life. This retelling sings in quick, rhyming lines that carry readers from laughter at a cranky old man to the hush of a haunted bedroom and the joy of a crowded Christmas table. The language is clear and lively, perfect for reading aloud, with pictures that glow like windows on a winter street. Expect carols, clatter, and wonder, all paced for young listeners and engaging for older eyes.Three visitors arrive with lessons that feel close to home. The first opens doors to yesterday, the second warms the present with food, family, and games, and the last points to a road no one wants to take. Along the way, kindness, gratitude, and courage move from ideas to actions you can see and feel. Humor softens the sharp parts, and the ending lands like a bell, bright and true.Designed for ages 7 to 97, this is a cozy read and a rich companion for holiday gatherings. Repeating refrains invite children to chime in, while clever details give teens and adults plenty to notice on each reread. Open the covers to find a classic made fresh, a winter city painted in color, and a story that leaves the room warmer than it found it.
