Presentation Transcript

  1. AChristmas Carol ‘I have endeavoured in this Ghostly little book, to raise the Ghost of an Idea, which shall not put my readers out of humour with themselves, with each other, with the season, or with me. May it haunt their houses pleasantly, and no one wish to lay it.’ Their faithful Friend and Servant, C.D. December, 1843

  2. Ebenezer Scrooge • Ebenezer Scrooge is a miserly old man who believes that Christmas is just an excuse for people to miss work and for idle people to expect handouts. • He doesn't believe in all of the good cheer and charity that the season promotes, and he makes sure everyone knows it.

  3. Marley • That night, Scrooge is visited by the ghost of his former business associate, Jacob Marley -- a man who was as greedy and cold as Scrooge is. • Marley warns Scrooge that if he continues to live so selfishly, he will spend eternity wearing the chains that his greed has built.

  4. The Ghosts • Three ghosts visit Scrooge successively: the Ghost of Christmas Past, the Ghost of Christmas Present, and the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come. • They show Scrooge his error in valuing money over people. • Scrooge is frightened by the bleak picture of his life and promises to change his ways.

  5. The Result • Scrooge awakes on Christmas morning a new man. • He becomes jolly and charitable, and truly turns into the man he promised the ghosts he would become. • He carries the spirit of Christmas with him all the year round.
