A+Christmas+Carol

__ A Christmas Carol __ Written by: Charles Dickens Reviewed by: Harry Potter, age 11

The main characters are Screwsh and Bob Crechelt. In the story Screwsh, a greedy old man gets visited from the ghost of his dead friend Marly. The ghost tells him if he will die his soul won’t get rested any more, because he isn’t nice to the other people. The ghost tells him that three other ghosts will come to teach him about being kind. The story takes place in London in 1850. The genre is historical.

I like the book, because you learn something. I like historical books. It is a bit scary. It has a happy ending.

I think it is good for children 6-11 years. It is not too scary.
