Saben, la moraleja de este libro me hace recordar un poco a las creencias del catolicismo, el "Se bueno, no para merecer el cielo, sino para no ir al infierno."

Read for Popsugar: A book that has inspired a common phrase or idiom (thanks, Tiny Tim!)

I'm getting short on time on my self-imposed goal of catching up on Popsugar books so I'm looking for the easiest way forward and this picture book is perfect, haha. I loved Brett Helquist's art in the Series of Unfortunate Events and we get the same vibe here. Really gorgeous illustrations with a truncated story, which is fine with me!

I did a lot of “Leo pointing” in my head as I read it, and was surprised to see that so much of what is cut from adaptations is cut consistently and justifiably. Though I would very much enjoy seeing the second Belle scene and Scrooge patting the door knocker show up.

Also, was Yet To Come thrilled that Scrooge was so dense he got to show him everything he wanted to, or was he increasingly annoyed that he had to show Scrooge his literally engraved tombstone before he realised he was the dead asshole?
