Illustrated by
Robert Ingpen.
Ingpen's fans will be the obvious audience for this edition of Dickens's classic Christmas story. The large book, printed on heavy cream-colored paper, also includes Dickens's lesser-known short story "A Christmas Tree." Ingpen's ghostly illustrations highlight the scarier parts of the tales.
