Rose Riversová bydlí v honosném domě v Londýně se svým otcem, známým malířem, hádavou matkou, šesti sourozenci a spoustou služebnictva - a připadá si jako ve zlaté kleci. Je inteligentní a zvídavá a ráda by studovala na internátní škole jako její stejně starý bratr. Ve společnosti však panuje názor, že pro mladé dámy je vzdělání naprosto zbytečné, a tak má Rose smůlu. Po bratrovi se jí stýská o to víc, že teď nemá žádného skutečného přítele. Náhle se však objeví příležitost navázat hned dvě přátelství - s novou pomocnicí chůvy Clover Moonovou a s chráněncem otce, nadaným malířem Parisem Walkerem, jenž v jejich domě tráví dlouhé hodiny tvorbou portrétu její matky. Rose nedbá na to, že ani jedno přátelství není společensky přípustné, a její život se v krátké době obrátí vzhůru nohama... Chtěla jsem si myslet, že se jim líbí u nás sloužit. Jenomže oni samozřejmě nebyli šťastní z toho, že musejí pracovat celý den v domě, kde je nikdo nemá rád a kde si nemůžou ani chvilku hrát. I kdybych se snažila sebevíc, nikdy bych nemohla být jejich kamarádka, jelikož jsem dcera jejich pána a paní a oni jsou jen sloužící. To, že já i oni jsme děti, bylo každému ukradené.

Ebenezer Scrooge is a lonely, miserly old man who hates Christmas, which he dismisses as "humbug". One Christmas Eve, however, he is visited by a series of ghosts who reveal to him the innocence he has lost, the wretchedness of his future and the poverty of the present, which he has so far ignored. This experience teaches Scrooge the true meaning of the holiday and leaves him a transformed man.With its memorable cast of characters such as Scrooge, Bob Cratchit, Tiny Tim and the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Yet to Come, Charles Dickens's A Christmas Carol is the most heart-warming of seasonal tales, a timeless classic that continues to enchant readers around the world and a lesson in charity and hopefulness that is as powerful today as when it was first written in 1843.

A Christmas Carol is the most famous, heart-warming and chilling festive story of them all. In these pages we meet Ebenezer Scrooge, whose name is synonymous with greed and parsimony: ''Every idiot who goes about with "Merry Christmas" on his lips, should be boiled with his own pudding, and buried with a stake of holly through his heart''. This attitude is soon challenged when the ghost of his old partner, Jacob Marley, returns from the grave to haunt him on Christmas Eve. Scrooge is then visited in turn by three spirits of Christmas Past, Present and Future, each one revealing the error of his ways and gradually melting the frozen heart of this old miser, leading him towards his redemption. On the journey we take with Scrooge we encounter a rich array of Dickensian characters including the poor Cratchit family with the ailing Tiny Tim and the generous and jolly Fezziwig.When Charles Dickens wrote A Christmas Carol in 1843 he fashioned an enduring gift to the world, capturing the essence of the love, kindness and generosity of the Christmas season. It is a timeless classic and the story''s uplifting magic remains as potent today as when it was first published.
