What I know about A Christmas Carol is that it is about a man named Ebenezer Scrooge. He doesn't like Christmas and is mean to everyone. Then, 3 ghosts come to him and show him as he was in the past, what he is now, and what he will be if he doesn't change. He sees how bad he is and changes to a much better person.
The Christmas Carol might be about a person during the Victorian time period in England where there might be like a person who has a money problem and needs a job. I don't really know but maybe there is some characeter vs. character conflict with a poor person and a wealthy. Like maybe the wealthy one won't give the poor one a job or something. And since it is about Christmas, it probably takes place in that time of year and the poor person might really need a job, but in the end the wealthy one might probably turn around and be nice and give him a job or something.
Charles Dickens was a boy who had to start working at a young age because his father fgot put in jail cause he could not paid the bills. As he grow up he started writeing storys for people and would have to go to work and come back and write more storys.Later he met a lady that took his breath away and they fell in love and had kids. As he became more famous for wirteing books he met an actress who he fell in love with there relationship with another woman made his wife get a dievoce. At the age of 54 or something he died of a "stork" leaving only his work of writeings.
What I know about Charles Dickens is not that much, but what I do know about Charles Dickens is that when he was llittle his dad had to go to jail because he had debts to pay. What they did there was wait until someone of his family member will pay off the debt or work to pay off the debt. Charles will go visit his dad every Sunday. Charles started working in a place where you lable can s or different material. Than when he worked as a clerk he would list names and with these names he would write storys. Charles then got marry and had kids. Then after time past he got a storke and died.
i know the Christmas carol is about a mean man named Scrooge and doesnt know that he is doing wrong. once he falls asleep 3 ghost wake him and show him the error of his ways and bad things that happen to people. when he realizes what he had done, he starts being nice to everyone and then that just ends the story.
Based on what i know about Charles Dickens he had to start working at a very young age b/c his father was put in jail. A while later he started writing stories to read aloud to people and to get money. Mabey this story will be about his life when he was younger.

In the "Christmas Carol" there was a very mean man who was lonely and very misunderstood, he hated the spirt of christmas and a angel came down and showed him his past, how he is now, and his future. The mean man saw how horrible he was being to everyone and changed his ways and now loved christmas and everyone in his village.
I think Charles Dickens was a well liked poet and author who wrote a "Christmas Carol" that takes place in the Victorian England time period. What I do know about A Christmas Carol is that there's a guy named Scrooge and he doesn't have the Christmas spirit. Since he doesn't believe in Christmas he makes all his workers work threw Christmas. Then on Christmas eve night he gets a visit from three ghosts who help to bring the spirit back to Scrooge.
What I know about a Christmas Carol is that a guy doens't like christmas and is mean kind of like the grinch. I know about Victorian England and London's Industrial Revolution back then is there might of been slavery back then like the U.S had. There might of also been Segragation in England London as well.
What I know about A Christmas Carol is that it is about a man named Ebenezer Scrooge and he is a stingy mean old man to everyone. Then, 3 ghots come to see him and show him how he was when he was younger, then what he is now, and the future if he doesn't change. Afterward he is a nicer and much better person.
The Victorian Era was during the reign of Queen Victoria of England. Charles Dickens was a great author who wrote numerous classics still read today. Great expectations is a very popular book written by him. I know that Ebenezer Scrooge is the main character. His buisness partner, Marley, was pronounced dead in the first sentence of the book. Ebenezer Scrooge is visted by ghosts of Christmas' past, present, and future.
I think that back then in Victoria England alot of people werent rich and many couldnt aford a big dinner or presents for their kids or family but I dont know if this is true.From the story A Christmas Carol thats how i might of figured.
I really dont know anything about charles dickens and victoria london, but it sounds like charles dickens is a sailor or a trader that helps victoria wich is probally a royal princess or queen or something.
During this time, people were starting to form thier own businesses rather than working for "higher classes", as was previously done. Factory work was common, as well as work as a merchant.
In 1916 A Story was born its called A River Between Us .Its about a boy named Howard Hutchings who embarks on a journey , to the Mississippi River right across from the little town of Grand Tower.He is searching to find his family ,see his mom won't let him visit them she thinks the are not good enough or there to poor.But as a teenager you never listen everthing goes in one year and out the other.As he was traveling he meets a young girl about his age named Tilly Pruitt oh how he fell for her was it her eyes or beauiful look or her charming personality ,whatevr it was he loved her the day he saw her
As time progresses Howard starts to belive that a poor boy can fall in love with a rich girl.Oh how young and in love he is but he does not no that her family will never accept him one becuase he is poor, two he is not educated and three he does not like working
I know absolutly nothing about thhe london industrial revolution but I do know that in Victorian England, the queen was Queen Victorian. I also know that Charles Dickens is a great english writer and has wrote many stories such as A Christmas Carol. In A Christmas Carol the main character is ebenezer scrooge. He is a mean and selfish old man who is very rich. On christmas eve he is visited by 3 ghost. The ghost of christmas past, The ghost of christmas present, and The ghost of christmas future.
What I know about the Vic age is that people back then were more proper then people are now. Women wore dresses and men wore suits all the time. Things were fancy and eligance.
I think that the Christmas Carol took place in Victorian England and I know that there was a very mean and heartless man (Scrooge) who had no holiday spirit. I don't know much about Charles Dickens except that he was an author.
Regarding Charles Dickons I know that he was an author who lived in England. I am somewhat familiar with a Christmas Carol. Victorian England was the time period in England when Queen Victoria reigned. I believe it was a time when there was no middle class or it was very small. All the citizens were either very poor or very rich. In the Christmas Carol Scrooge was very rich and his employee was very poor. (I can't remember his name!)
I don't really know what "A Christmas Carol" is about, all I know is that it takes place in Victorian England, probably around christmas time. Looking at some of the comments I think it has something to do with a very wealthy man who is very greedy and selfish, but through-out the events in the book, becomes a kind and generous man.
I don't know much about A Christmas Carol, for some reason i think it is about some kind of Christmas Ghost or something. I know that Charles Dickens was an author, I'm guessing that he was an author in Victorian England. I'm not sure though. I have heard of alot of people reading A Christmas Carol, but never read it myself.
I think the Christmas Carol might be about someone that is really mean to a lot of people, then eventually someone or something gets revenge on him, and since it is called "Christmas Carol" I think it will probaly take place on Christmas or near Christmas.
I may not know very much about Victorian England, but i know a few things. Queen Victoria went into power in 1835 and ruled to 1901. Because a lot of things happened in her time, that time period is called "Victorian" England. She went from horse carriages in the time of our founding fathers, to the steam engine and telephones
I know nothing,but we just talked about a little bit.It was a little girl who grew up during the World War II,and became a queen.And who was known for her fashions as a little girl.
I think the christmas carol is about a man who hates christman and want to ruin it for everyone but in the end he realized whats its all about and changes into a nice caring person
Well what I know about Victorean England is a place were you go If you need a job, have debt' and if you low on money. So basically a poor district is what I'm basically describing. Some people might have some wealth like Ebenezer Scrooge. So Scrooge might help a lot of people out with his wealth.
Charles Dickens is a famous English author. He had a rough childhood, due to his family's debt. He also died at a fairly young age because of a stroke. One of his most famous stories is "A Christmas Carol", which is about a very greedy old man who doesn't celebrate Christmas. In the end though, he learns that there is more to life than money.
Victorian, England was named after England queen Victoria. this place is a mixture of rich people and poor people. The rich people were well educated while the poor people could not pay their taxes and place in debtors prision. The family would rely on their kids to go out and get jobs to help pay off their debt.
What I know about a "Christmas Carol" is that it is a book about a guy named Scrooge. Scrooge doesn't like Christmas at all and he is really mean to everyone. After a little bit of time three ghosts come to him and show him what he had done in the past. The ghosts showed him what would happen to him later in life if he kept on acting like this. Once he saw what would happen if he didn’t change his ways and was nice to everyone and the spirit if Christmas was in him again. That is what I know about the story "The Christmas Carol."
Around the Victorian time period in London, I think that life was hard on Charles Dickens. I know that his family suffered some financial downfalls, which led Dickens to work at a young age. The streets of London were very dangerous, too. There were many criminals and diseases to be caught. The book, A Christmas Carol, I know is about a man named Scrooge. His old friend comes back to haunt him after he had died I think and helps him to become a nicer man by showing him his past, present, and future, and how he can change.
