When else to expect miracles, if not at Christmas and New Year? And there is only one person in London who hates the holidays. What's the point, after all: people are having fun, and no one wants to work! So thinks Mr. Scrooge, a gloomy miser who adores nothing but money. It is no wonder that it is to him that the three Christmas spirits come. And the spirits had to make an effort to change Scrooge's attitude toward both the people around him and life itself.
One wants to know every detail of such an unexpected transformation of a person. This opportunity, along with Dickens's text, is provided by the colorful illustrations of artist Maksim Mitrofanov, who in his drawings tried not to miss a single character, not a single important detail of this magical Christmas story.
