This Oxford Children's Classic contains the complete unabridged
text of A Christmas Carol and other Christmas stories written by
Charles Dickens. It also features an introduction by Neil Gaiman
and other bonus material including insights for readers, facts,
activities, and more . . . Miserly Ebenezer Scrooge is visited by
three spectral spirits on Christmas Eve. They guide him on a
journey through his past, present, and future, showing him the joys
of Christmas and the consequences of his wicked ways.
Pip is a poor orphan, a boy with “no expectations” being raised
by his unkind sister and her husband in a small home on the marshes
of Kent. But when Pip meets the bizarre Miss Havisham and her
beautiful ward, Estella, he starts to yearn for a life as a
gentleman. However, Pip will discover that wealth and honesty do
not go hand in hand, and that kindness can be found in the most
surprising places. A love story, a mystery, and a sharp critique of
upper-class English society, Great Expectations remains one of
Dickens’s best-regarded works.
