Synopsis
The Oxford Bookworms Library offers enjoyable reading at seven levels (Starter to Stage 6). To find your required reading level please take the Oxford Bookworks reading level test. Ebeneezer Scrooge is a cross, miserable, mean old man. When his nephew visits him on Christmas Eve to wish him a merry Christmas, Scrooge is not at all pleased. Bah! Humbug! he says. Christmas is humbug! Everyone who goes around saying 'Merry Christmas' should have his tongue cut out. Yes, he should! Oh yes, Scrooge is a hard, mean man. His clerk, Bob Cratchit, gets only fifteen shillings a week, and has to work in a cold little office, with a fire too small to warm even his toes. But that Christmas Eve Scrooge is visited by the ghost of his long-dead partner, Jacob Marley. And after him come three more ghostly visitors ... It is a long night, and a frightening night, and when Christmas Day finally arrives, Scrooge is a very different man indeed.Book details
