A compelling adaptation that captures the heart of the original Dickens tale. When Scrooge is visited by three ghosts, he must confront the choices that have shaped his life. Is there still time to change his ways? A Christmas Carol is at Oxford Reading Level 12. It is for readers aged 11 to 13 years old who are working below expected standard in their reading. The Readerful Rise series ensures that older struggling readers have books with age appropriate content and topics that look like the books their peers are enjoying, but are written at a level they can read successfully.
