I assume most people know the story of A Christmas Carol- how Ebenezer Scrooge, the stingiest man in town, changes his life after a visitation by four spirits. It's been re-told countless times, in countless ways. I had seen several movie/TV versions (my favorite being the animated The Stingiest Man in Town; a sample picture is shown below), but never actually read the book by the incomparable Charles Dickens. As I expected, it was great, and the illustrations by P.J. Lynch in this particular edition are similarly outstanding. May we take the tale's lesson to heart, and "God bless us, every one."
