Ebenezer Scrooge

is that there are situations in which spirits does not inform Scrooge the reason why he is wrong but gives him an opportunity to find on his own. The past ghost seems to be ironic whereby the character named Fezziwing does something special and his actions leads to Scrooge's praise to his generosity.

sympathy for Scrooge during his Christmas gathering despite that Scrooge treats him in such a rude manner. Scrooge’s employer, Fezziwig, displays a prime example of how happiness is more important than currency. He closes work early on Christmas day to gather everyone together and have a party, just for the opportunity for everyone to enjoy themselves. The example that surprises Scrooge most of all is the Cratchit family’s…

inspire and enlighten the audience. By choosing to use a version of this play that incorporates music he not only brought this story to life but brought the audience into the story. For example, it was impossible not to feel the overwhelming joy that Scrooge was experiencing at the end of the play.

This in mind, I completely believe that Daehn accomplished what he set…

It also shows scrooge's discussion with Belle, and how she leaves him because he is too busy to pay attention…

I chose the children’s book How the Grinch Stole Christmas by Dr. Seuss (Theodor Geisel). This book’s original copyright year is 1957 and is at reading level P with an interest level of grades K-3.

This movie rendition of this Dr. Seuss classic was originally released on November 17th, 2000. The…

“Christmas is a poor excuse every 25th of December to pick a man’s pockets.” The writing of Charles Dickens often shows that people use their condition to make people feel bad and give money to them. Poverty plays a major roll in Dickens writings, he shows people that no matter how a person appears, you should treat them with the same respect that you treat yourself with. The people of Victorian London in that time didn’t have all the things that we have today, they had to play in alleys,…

In the book The Hobbit by JRR Tolkien we have been introduced to a character named Bilbo. Bilbo was like any other Hobbit he was wimpy and perfect. Example of being perfect on pg 15 a poem appears and towards the end it said cracked plates is what Bilbo baggins hates. The poem also goes through more examples of what Bilbo doesn’t like when the dwarfs left his house a mess for him to clean up. On pg 123 it shows how he is wimpy because he wakes up wanting to be at home for brushing his teeth…
