Spreading Christmas Cheer

 The reason I read this book was because I enjoyed the author's work.  Charlie Lovett wrote the Lost Book of the Grail, which I enjoyed very much.  But the Further Adventures of Ebenezer Scrooge is completely different.  This little novel is a "take off" of Charles Dickens, A Christmas Carol.

It's a fun tale.  Scrooge is a changed man.  His joy spreads Christmas every day.  In this story, Bob Cratchit and Scrooge's nephew, Freddy, are the joyless, skinflints. Scrooge calls upon his ghost friends to do to these two grouches what they did to him.  That's the plot.

It's a very easy, small book.  Everyone needs a little Christmas in their life.
