Worksheet Overview

'A Christmas Carol' is a novella (short story) written by Charles Dickens in 1843.

It is set in Victorian London over the time period Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.

Victorians were not a festive bunch when Dickens wrote his novel.

This story helped reinvent Christmas celebrations and Christmas spirit!

If it wasn't for Mr Dickens - you may still well only be receiving a lump of coal at Christmas!
