"A Christmas Carol" by Charles Dickens tells the story of Ebenezer Scrooge, a miser who despises Christmas and all things joyful. One Christmas Eve, he is visited by the ghost of his deceased business partner, Jacob Marley, who warns him to change his ways. Scrooge is then visited by three spirits: the Ghost of Christmas Past, who shows him joyful memories; the Ghost of Christmas Present, who reveals the struggles of those around him; and the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come, who presents a bleak future if he continues his selfish ways. Ultimately, Scrooge transforms into a generous and kind-hearted man, embracing the spirit of Christmas. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
