Book By You, the leading publisher of personalized books, offers the personalized edition of Charles Dickens' timeless holiday classic, A Christmas Carol-a book that belongs at the top of everyone's holiday list. Step into the shoes of the famous curmudgeon, Ebenezer Scrooge, his faithful, hard-working clerk, Bob Cratchit, or any of five other personalize-able characters. This wonderful classic will fill even the Scroogy-ist Scrooge with the Christmas Spirit as the story follows Scrooge's journey through Christmases past, present, and future, and teaches him a valuable lesson about kindness, charity, and the true meaning of Christmas.

This classic 1843 novella starts when miserly Ebenezer Scrooge (the personalized lead character) treats Christmas as just another day to earn money, mistreat his poor clerk, Bob Cratchit, and show callous disregard for those in need. He even resents his nephew's good natured holiday wishes, famously calling Christmas a "humbug!" On Christmas Eve, the old miser gets a ghostly visit from his late business partner, warning him that he has only one chance to change his ways. Even then, Scrooge refuses to learn. Then the true journey begins: the spirits of Christmases Past, Present, and Future each arrive to take our personalized 'hero' on a trip through his life: how it was, is, and might soon be. Can Scrooge mend his ways before it's too late?

A Christmas Carol's emotional depth, brilliant narration and endearing characters, offer plenty of rewards for Dickensian fans, readers of all ages, and everyone who wants to keep the holiday living in their hearts all year.
