«A Christmas Carol» is the graded reader of Charles Dickens's Christmas classic, published by Pearson in paperback (48 pages, in English).
Ebenezer Scrooge is a miserly, surly man who despises Christmas and treats those around him harshly. One night, three ghosts visit him and show him his past, his present, and a possible future. The journey confronts him with the consequences of his selfishness and asks whether he still has time to change and redeem himself.
It is part of the Penguin Readers series, level 2, a collection of graded readers from Pearson; the edition was published in November 2000.
For students of English as a foreign language and for young people aged 12 to 14 approaching the classics in adapted form.
Charles John Huffam Dickens was an English writer and journalist.

His works enjoyed unprecedented popularity during his lifetime and, by the 20th century, critics and scholars had recognised him as a literary genius. His novels and short stories are widely read today.
