This Christmas, join Michael Rosen and Tony Ross with their unforgettable retelling of Charles Dickens’ beloved classic. In a school theatrical production of ""A Christmas Carol"", the boy who plays Scrooge is extra nervous because his very busy father is in the audience. However, it’s likely his father won’t stay for the duration, due to business. As always. Will the classic story’s message of Christmas cheer and family love reach his father’s distracted heart? with text by Michael Rosen and hilarious line illustrations by Tony Ross – both national treasures in the children’s book world! ""Michael Rosen’s clever re-telling of the Dicken’s classic"" - The Daily Mail There are two narratives: a contemporary family story frames (and echoes) the original Dickens tale, presented as the script of a school play

A good take on the christmas carol

Found it hard jumping between script and story which made the characters confusing. I enjoyed reading script for the first time though and the big sections of script
