Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol is a timeless novella following Ebenezer Scrooge's transformation from miserly miser to generous man through supernatural encounters on Christmas Eve. Through visits from three spirits, Scrooge confronts his past, present, and future, learning that redemption is possible at any moment. The story becomes a meditation on greed, compassion, and the power of choice to change our lives and the lives of those around us.

WHY WE PICKED IT: Because Dickens understood that the scariest thing isn't ghosts, it's the possibility that we might become Scrooge. This novella endures because it shows us that no one is beyond redemption, and that choosing kindness is always possible, even at the last moment.
