"A Christmas Carol" by Charles Dickens follows the story of Ebenezer Scrooge, a miserly and cold-hearted businessman who despises Christmas. On Christmas Eve, he is visited by the ghost of his former business partner, Jacob Marley, who warns him to change his ways or face a grim fate. Scrooge then encounters three spirits—the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Yet to Come—who reveal the consequences of his actions and the true meaning of Christmas. Through these transformative experiences, Scrooge learns the importance of compassion, generosity, and the joy of human connection, ultimately finding redemption and spreading goodwill.
