Many would agree that when we think of
Christmas, we probably think of gifts,
Christmas trees and Santa Claus. But behind
all these things lies the true meaning of
Christmas: the importance of sharing and giving love and joy to people around us. The story in A Christmas Carol is perhaps the best example of this.
