	Dickens’ original novel was an important part of my childhood and youth. The setting gave it a particular resonance because Christmas was an especially warm and exciting time in our family with aunts and uncles gathered to celebrate my father’s birthday on Christmas Eve. I could identify with the Cratchit family while feeling deeply sad for their impoverished circumstances. The transformation of Scrooge, whose initial meanness was so repellent, was finally satisfying – don’t we all love a happy ending with the triumph of goodness.
