Book review4

This book was written by Charles Dickens. Scrooge is a cold, hard man. He loves money, and he does not like people. He really does not like Christmas. But then some ghosts visit him. They show him his past, his life now, and a possible future. Marley was dead, but names on the door, seven years after he died. It was Christmas Eve, and Old Scrooge was busy at his desk. A man came into the office. His name was Fred, and he was Scrooge’s nephew. He came to Scrooge’s room to say “Merry Christmas”. The clerk opened the door for Fred and he left. Then two other men in expensive clothes came in. They had books and papers in their hands. One of the men looked at his papers, and he said ‘At this happy time of the year, Mr. Scrooge, we usually try to do something for the poor people in this city. They have not got any food. Many of them have no home, so we are asking people for money. We will give it to the poor for food and drink. How much will you give us?’ Scrooge said ‘ Nothing!’ and he was angry. Because he does not like Christmas. He went home. He had rooms in the house were offices now. Only Scrooge lived there. He opened the door and went in. He shut the door and sat down by the fire. He heard the noise of a heavy chain down below. The noise came up the stairs, nearer and nearer his room. It was Marley. Scrooge looked at Marley. He could see through him, and he could see the back of his coat. The ghost told that another ghosts will come here later.
