Book Description
Does the sight of a house festooned in glowing coloured bulbs and a huge illuminated reindeer bring you out in a cold sweat? Or the does thought of eating turkey for days and days upon end make you groan inwardly? And what of the adorable little carol singers - does their out-of-tune wailing and screeching set your teeth on edge? And the oh-so-annoying Christmas albums constantly on play in every crowded shop you visit.the jumper-knitting relatives pouting to be kissed.the freezing, dark mornings that make you wish you could stay under the duvet forever. If all these things make you want to either jump aboard the next plane to Timbuktu or stick your head in the oven along with the roast tatties, then this is the must-have survival book for you. Find comfort in the curmudgeonly anti-Christmas comments. Laugh at the ludicrous festive facts. And pity those about you that are taken in by the silly-season madness!

Book Description
To the parents, The ironic nature of this story is meant for all ages who have to deal with changing technology that affects everyday life. Explaining that going outside each day to play instead of just playing video games could be healthy. A simple break between games can help by simply getting exercise while having fun. The idea for parents is to understand that technology is becoming overwhelming due to not integrating our needs to what technology can accomplish for us so we can spend more time with our children. Make the time by putting technology down and listening to what our kids really need—their parents.

Book Description
Based on "A Christmas Carol" by Charles Dickens, this fresh, funny new version of Scrooge, by Channel 4 comedy writer Brian Luff, takes the much-loved Christmas story and turns it into a traditional British pantomime. While staying true to the original story, and using lots of the original dialogue, the script includes plenty of snappy banter, knockabout humour, audience participation and slick, modern comedy routines. The production requires a very large cast with lots of parts for children. It features Mrs Fezziwig as the panto dame and an hilarious double act called McKinley & Maconie - a couple of out of work actors turned charity fundraisers. There's a messy slapstick "grape treading" routine with Mr & Mrs Fezziwig during Scrooge's journey with the Ghost of Christmas Present and the part of Jacob Marley's ghost is ideal for a comedian. Have a very Merry Christmas with Mr Scrooge!

Book Description
Charles Dickens wrote a great story, a story that resonated with his readers over a century ago and has continued to do so over the years. The story's power to touch people's hearts is undeniable and this version is offered for two reasons. First, the original version is, for today's readers, difficult to read and understand. Its verbiage and style were entirely appropriate for the day, but now are cumbersome at best. This version is written to be more reader-friendly while holding to the soul and integrity of the original. Our story also has been abridged to some degree to make the story line a bit simpler. Second, we take the liberty of reading between the lines of what Dickens wrote and making, we believe, the logical assumption that Scrooge's final transformation is a true spiritual rebirth. Many who have studied his life and work are convinced of his own Christianity as his work not only includes a beautifully written story about Jesus, but his other writings always told a story of redemption. Read it to your children and your grandchildren during this Christmas time and then put it on the shelf to be taken down and re-read Christmas after Christmas. This story doesn't get old. It is, indeed, a perennial favorite.
