Well, the time of year to read Dickens' A Christmas Carol has arrived! This will be the third or fourth year the children and I have read this together. Last year we read it and then watched Patrick Stewart's presentation. That was the best interpretation I have ever seen. This has been a great school term--Washington Irving, Mark Twain and Charles Dickens!
I love the version with Patrick Stewart as well! I have not watched it for a couple of years. Maybe I will again this year. The first version I saw was the one with George C. Scott. It was a good version too although I will have to say I favor Patrick Stewart probably because I love STNG. :) The more I think about it the more I want to go home and put on some Earl Grey tea and look for my copy of it taped off TNT. We are supposed to get our first flurries today!
Reading "A Christmas Carol" is a wonderful family tradition. Enjoy your day!
