11 The Turning of the Scrooge

CHAPTER 11 THE TURNING OF THE SCROOGE MR. WATSON, HISTORY IS MY FAVORITE CLASS. I TEACH SCIENCE, HUBIE. Well, I'm so confused. Is Christmas about giving or living? If it's about being nice to each other-that's easy. It doesn't cost anything to be nice. I WANT A COOKIE.

The next day Mrs. Green shows us a video called A Christmas Carol. It's about a grumpy old man who doesn't believe in Christmas. His name is Scrooge and he only believes in money. I ONLY BELIEVE IN CASAMAS.

Mrs. Green said, "Scrooge is a miser, who causes a lot of miser-y." Anyway, he gets visited by three ghosts... Christmas Huey, Christmas Dewey, and Christmas Louie. They give him an accounting of his life, and when he adds it up—he comes out very poorly.

Scrooge has a change of heart and starts spending his money and his love to help other people. And finally, his humbugs turn into big hugs.
