Ebenezer Scrooge was an old money lender in London. He was rich, but he was a very greedy, stingy and selfish man.
He wasn't friendly to people and he didn't help anyone.
His only friend and partner, Jacob Marley, died many
years ago
His clerk, Bob Cratchit had to work in a cold room
because Scrooge didn't want to spend money on coal to
heat the room.
At Christmas Scrooge's nephew Fred came to invite him
to Christmas dinner at his home and to wish a "Merry
Christmas", but Scrooge only answered angrily "Bah,
humbug."
On Christmas Eve, Scrooge was sitting alone in his cold
living room at home. Suddenly the ghost of his dead
partner, Jacob Marley appeared. He said to Scrooge,
"Change your life! You must become a better man. You
must be kind to people, you must laugh with them. Three
ghosts will visit you this night." Scrooge was terribly
afraid. Then he went to bed
