Charles Dikens is the writer of this book. He was born in 1812. He wrote a Christmas Carol when he was thirty-one. At that time he was famous for other great stories: Pickwick Papers, Oliver Twist, Nicholas Nickleby and The Old Curiosity Shop. But he had a hard life when he was a child. He never forgot.
In A Christmas Carol, Dickens tells us about Chistmas in London. In 1843 London was a dirty town. The houses had coal fires, and there was often fog in the streets in winter. But on Christmas Day people sang songs and played games. They went to church, and had goose for Cristmas Dinner.Dickens wrote A Christmas Carol very quickly, because he wanted it in the shops before Chirstmas 1843. It was expensive, at twenty-five pence, but 6.000 people bought the book before Christmas.
People will remember Dickens for all his great stories, but they often think of him at Christmas.
This book is good for people who like Christmas and mistery.
