A Christmas carol
A Christmas carol starts off with the author showing the reader that Scrooge is a bad person. For example, at one point in stave one Scrooge is described as a "cuvits old sinner" and also Dickens writes "no one stopped him in the street to say, my dear Scrooge, how are you?" This shows that he has been so horrible to everyone they have all given up on trying to be friendly to him. Also when his uncle comes to visit him and invites him over for Christmas dinner Scrooge says "good afternoon" in a tone that shows he wishes Fred (his nephew) to leave and stop being nice and interacting with Scrooge.
Stave two starts with Scrooge coming home to his big lonely house by himself but when he comes to the door the door knocker looks exactly like his only friend Marley who died seven years ago on Christmas Eve. Scrooge falls over backwards but when he gets back up the door knocker is back to normal he goes into his room and is greeted by the ghost of Marley who tells him he will be visited by three ghosts and if he doesn't change then when he dies he will have a big chain around him for all eternity. Then the ghost of Christmas past comes and shows Scrooge parts of his past before he became horrible and after to show him how much of a different I'm resign he had on everybody. …show more content…
When Scrooge touches his robe the floor turns transparent and they go around showing Scrooge how much of a merry time Scrooge could be having if he changed and was nicer to other
