Publisher's Description of Christmas Carol and Other Holiday Treasures (Word Cloud Classics)

Most famous in the realm of holiday literature for his 1843 publication, A Christmas Carol, Charles Dickens was in fact a prolific writer in the yuletide genre and a great contributor to many now-prevalent traditions of the holiday itself. In 1944, A Christmas Carol, Dickens released The Chimes: A Christmas Story of Some Bells That Rang an Old Year Out and a New Year In, which combined his usual sympathy for the poor with the notion that we must always strive to live in nobler ways. In 1845 came the novella The Cricket on the Hearth. The years 1846 and 1848 respectively saw published The Battle of Life and The Haunted Man and the Ghost's Bargain. Because of this wealth of Christmas-themed works, Dickens is sometime referred to as "the man who invented Christmas."

Category Description for Word Cloud Classics

From the minute I saw these books, I've been in love with them. These beautifully bound versions of timeless literature feature colorful, heat burnished faux leather covers. The modern design features quotes from each story embossed into the cover and specially designed end papers. The smaller format (about 5.5" x 8") makes them great travel companions - they even fit in my purse! Books are unabridged so they vary in length from 200 to 600 pages. Because of their similar size and durable feel, they look great on a bookshelf and would make a great foundation for your personal library. They would also make a great gift for your eager reader. I've already purchased a few and plan to order many more. - Laura
