Summary:
The setting of the book is one Christmas in London. There was an old man who loves money and doesn’t like people. His name is Scrooge. He was a cold and hard man. Naturally he doesn’t like Christmas because you want things but you can’t get the money on the day. When Scrooge spent one Christmas alone, three ghosts visited him. The first ghost showed him some past Christmases, the second ghost showed him Christmas now, the third ghost showed him future Christmas. Then, he learned that he had had things which are more important than money in the past, there were some people who think the world of him even though his attitude toward of them is very cold, and nobody would grieve for him if he died. He could notice the important things which are required of living as a human and changed him into a kind person. Of course, he always spent good Christmases after the experience.

Evaluation: 5 stars
The attraction of the book is the process that an old man who is a cold and hard man reform himself gradually and gets back him warm personality through the experiences with ghosts. The book teaches us not only the importance of kindness to anyone but also soft heart inherent in us. I thought it’s reasonable that the book will be made into a movie in this winter. This is why I think the book is such a great book.
