From the back cover:
"Tommyrot! Humbug!
That’s what Christmas means to grumpy old stock and station agent Ted Scrooge. He lets nothing interfere with his passion for making money—especially not the ‘annual outbreak of insanity’ called Christmas. As the outback town of Dandaloo swelters though a hot and dusty Christmas Eve, Scrooge comes face-to-face with four unforgettable ‘ghosts’—and discovers the true spirit of Christmas.
Brimming with humour, Kel Richards’ recreation of the adventures of the miserly Scrooge, honest Bob Cratchit and pure-hearted young Tiny Tim gives Charles Dickens’ famous and beloved story an Australian flavour as heart-warming as the original.
