"A Christmas Carol" by Charles Dickens tells the story of Ebenezer Scrooge, a miserly old man who values wealth over happiness. On Christmas Eve, he is visited by the ghost of his former business partner, Jacob Marley, who warns him to change his ways. Scrooge is then confronted by three spirits: the Ghost of Christmas Past, who revisits his lonely childhood; the Ghost of Christmas Present, who shows him the joy of the season; and the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come, revealing a bleak future if he does not repent. Transformed by these experiences, Scrooge embraces the spirit of Christmas and generosity. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
