As part of our holiday activities, we will endeavor to read Charles Dickens "A Christmas Carol". The document below is a shortened version of all four staves of the book. If you wish, please access the vocabulary link provided at the top of the reading. I have also included a Historical Perspective document which of Dickens' society and life. This will offer you insights into how people lived in the late 19th century and what England was like at that time.
