This A4-sized, full-colour, ready-annotated edition of Charles Dickens’s A Christmas Carol is perfect for:

The full text of the novella is set on an easy-to-read cream background with wide margins on every page providing helpful annotations about the key information on that page. This takes the student step-by-step through the novella highlighting useful insights about the characters and plot as well as addressing the main themes and context. At the bottom of each page definitions are supplied to aid the understanding of unusual or archaic language used within the text.

At the back of the book students will find a helpful guide to key quotations from the novella. Each quotation will reference where it appears in the novella as a whole and identified with an at-a-glance ‘key’ symbol.
