But when three spirits visit him one Christmas Eve, Scrooge is taken on a journey into the past, present and future that will change him forever.

Also available with an audio CD with a dramatic listen-along recording with music and sound effects, followed by a read-along version with prompts for page turns.
Lesley dreamed of being a writer, but studied law as her mother insisted she had "something to fall back on". Since joining Usborne Publishing, she has written and edited hundreds of books, from funny rhyming stories to an award-winning history book. Nowadays, she is often found recording books, too, in Usborne's very own recording studio.
Young Reading Series 2 titles are for children who are reading more confidently. Most titles contain a single story divided into chapters, with varied sentence lengths and more challenging vocabulary.
Shows it is never too late to change your evil ways, and how seeing your past, present and future can change how you look at things.
