    This works out perfectly for me as a good resource to make my lesson plan for the winter camp I found out at the last minute I have to teach, thanks!

    Great lens! I'm teaching "A Christmas Carol" to my K-2 literature class tomorrow. We're using the Disney version of the story book since I couldn't find a more child-friendly version.
  • aesta1 Nov 20, 2011 @ 9:13 pm | delete
    I still love the 1951 version.

    When the new Disney Christmas Carol movie came out in 2009, I thought it would be a great time for educators and families to learn more about this timeless work of literature

    What an excellent lens! Such good ideas here. :)
    I'm going to add your lens to my "A Christmas Carol" lens.

    Muppet's Christmas Carol (Disney) is a fave of mine. While its wacky it actually preserves much of dickens text and is one of the more true to Story (Sept for marley)
    I long to see the Patrick Stewart
    And I did enjoy the scott version
    I have seen a lot of bad versions
  • JoyfulPamela Nov 7, 2011 @ 6:47 am | delete
    Yes, there are many good versions, but also some that are not true to Dickens original. Thanks for sharing your ideas. =D

    Truly a timeless classic that we enjoy every year. Although we like Bill Murray's Scrooged, the best is the old black and white version! Now you have me thinking about a Squidmas Carol! :)
  • jonart Dec 25, 2010 @ 11:07 pm | delete
    Hello there: Enjoyed your lens. I still have some old 78's records in a "Christmas Carol" album starring Basil Rathbone. Must have been done in the 40's and that's when I listened to them. It's definitely a classic story.

    I haven't seen all of the versions yet. So far, I like Alistair Sim the best. Blessed by a Squid Angel.

    A Christmas Carol is probably one of the very best books ever written. It's story is timeless. It has been made and re-made into movies over and over again. It's message never dies.
  • ElizabethJeanAllen Nov 3, 2010 @ 6:39 pm | delete
    We always watch two versions of The Christmas Carol on Thanksgiving. It sets the right tone for the Christmas season.
    Thanks for sharing,

    Thanks for sharing - another beautiful lens!

    I love the story of "A Christmas Carol"! It is by far my favorite holiday tale ... and Mickey's Christmas Carol is my favorite version. This is an excellent lens that contains a wealth of information and ideas for teaching this classic. It's definitely a story that kids should become familiar with. 5* and lensrolled to "Disney's A Christmas Carol Train Tour"
  • lostinfiction Dec 30, 2009 @ 9:15 am | delete
    wow, kudos to you for putting all this info together! Very well done. Also have a look at his Infloox page - I've seen quite a bit there about where Dickens drew his influences in order to write the book. I'd never have guessed that they'd be so unrelated, in a way! :)
  • Chappelle Dec 12, 2009 @ 6:44 am | delete
    Great information and well done lens!
    5* and favorited!

    It's a wonderful Christmas story. Always nice to watch and read the book around Christmas time. 5*

    Have seen many interesting versions over the years. There's a very talented actor/director locally who does it as a one-man show. Love the lens, and congrats on the awesome lensrank! :) :) :)

    Cool lens! I love the movie, A Christmas Carol. I havent watched it in a few years. I think I'll put that on my Christmas list.
  • lasertek Nov 16, 2009 @ 7:02 pm | delete
    A Christmas Carol. This story is very inspiring. I've seen a couple of plays about this story, yet, I'm willing to watch some more. This is really a good story that should be passed on to future generations.

    Hope you could visit my lens as well. Thanks

    I watch the Alistair Sim version at least two or three times every December. Such a wonderful classic. Blessed by a Squid Angel.

    I visited the train for Disney's new Christmas Carol movie - looks a bit spooky for little kids. I like the Muppet Christmas Carol.

    Great minds think alike! I did one similar but different, and was so surprised to find yours, 5stars and a lensroll:-) LOVE it! ~claudia

    A great lens about a great story. I've just been sitting bemoaning the numerous Xmas adverts on telly. More christmas spirit than retail hype is needed!

    I didn't realize there were so many great movie version out there. Nice collection.

    Really great lens. Maybe this will be a good year to read "Christmas Carol" to my kids. They've seen it on TV, but never read the book.
  • Sylvestermouse Oct 23, 2009 @ 10:39 am | delete
    Ok, so I would have definitely failed that test! I put my comments in the wrong comment box.

    This is a beautiful lens and an excellent resource lens.

    I love you bio. If my children were still "homeschool" age, I would definitely be seeking your help and advice. I believe you will be an excellent asset to all homeschooling Moms.

    Nice job. What an interesting idea to use the story "A Christmas Carol" as a teaching tool.
  • imolaK Oct 21, 2009 @ 3:15 am | delete
    I saw the film and I think we can learn from it very much.We can see how "Greed" can ruin someone's life and others' life ,too.
