disneydream06I took a page from my dear friend Mr. Owl, and found my copy of A Christmas Carol, which I just finished reading now.
There were some interesting parts that you don't see in the movie versions.
The copy I have is quite interesting. It's almost like an encyclopedia of the book. It contains lots of side notes and pictures describing things from the story and from the time period.
Unfortunately, I was trying to find a link to show you the book and I see that it's an abridged version of the story. :o Now I shall have to find a copy of the full text and get the full story.

A bit puzzling for an "encyclopedia" version of the book to have it abridged - makes no sense....
