Pleasantly Surprised ^ There are a lot of different reprints for this book and I really wanted one with some beautiful pictures that was fun to read and not just words on a page. I was so impressed by the illustrations. There is one on almost every page! I highly recommend this and honestly couldn't believe the book was so cheap for the quality of it!!
A Coffee Table Keeper ^ This book remains on our coffee table. Our grandsons love the illustrations. It is a book they pick up again and again for us to read to them. They enjoy this book as much as we do.
Unbelievably Beautiful ^ After reading many reviews on several different versions of A CHRISTMAS CAROL, I decided this one sounded like the version I was looking for. I couldn't be more thrilled with the fact that it's unabridged and its illustrations are beautiful. I watch this story every Christmas, in most versions, but never had the written story. A professional stage production of A CHRISTMAS CAROL is offered every Season and I'd taken our sons when they were young and wanted to take our grandsons this year (2009). Well, I bought each of them a copy of the book and put their ticket for the performance inside the front cover. What a hit that was. The boys now have the memory of seeing the live performance and owning their own copy of this remarkable classic. Don't hesitate. The price is unbelievably affordable and the quality of the book is impeccable. Enjoy!
book arrived on time, in good shape ^ This book was the one the teacher requested. It is an easy to read version, that arrived promptly in perfect shape.
Great to have in your library! ^ Pictures are lovely and it is the full story! This is one I am happy to have in my library and share w/ family for years to come.
