Bah! Humbug! by Tony Ross, Michael Rosen

3.0

This book isn't bad for a younger kid to read. As an adult it was a bit blahh. Harry gets the honor of playing Scrooge in his school's production of A Christmas Carol. His dad promises to see him in the play, but he is glued to his cell phone and things going on at work. This book almost a retelling of a christmas story. You are reading the play as the kids put it on, and dad is walking in and out of play and his life imitating the story. It wasn’t a bad story but so much of it was the play that it didn’t really seem like a retelling, or of an add in. Kids will enjoy it, parents, maybe not unless read as a family project together.
