Many would agree that when we talk about Christmas, we probably think of gifts, Christmas trees and Santa Claus. But behind all the things lies the true meaning of Christmas: the importance of sharing and giving love and joy to people around us. The story in A Christmas Carol is perhaps the best example of this. A Christmas Carol is a famous short novel written by Charles Dickens. It is about an old man named Scrooge who never laughs or smiles. He is mean and only thinks about himself. He doesn't treat others nicely. One Christmas Eve, Scrooge sees the ghost of Jacob Marley, his dead business partner. He tells Scrooge to expect three spirits to visit him.
That night three ghosts visit Scrooge, First, the Ghost of Christmas Past takes him back to his childhood. Then the second spirit, the Ghost of Christmas Present, takes him to see how others are spending Christmas this year. The last one, the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come, takes him to the future. Scrooge sees that he is dead, but nobody cares. He is so scared that he wakes up in his bed and finds out it is only the next morning-Christmas Day!
