Young Adult Eli Readers – Stage 3 – B1
Dickens’ favourite Christmas story shows us the difficult lives of the poor, but it is also a story of hope, where the future can be better.
Ebenezer Scrooge loves only one thing – money. He has no friends, doesn’t like his family and never helps anyone. But when Jacob Marley, who’s been dead for seven years, arrives at his house one night, Scrooge learns that a good life is about much more than money.
