The reason I gave this book a four is do to the messed up Christmas future graveyard scene, these are the 3 reasons why They shouldn't have changed it; 1. by having Tiny Tim alive in Christmas future , it implies that praying for healing, that you should during the Christmas present, always works, which isn't always true. 2 without Tiny Tim being dead in the Christmas future vision , They take away one of Scrooge's motives to change, since his grave wasn't his only motive to change. 3. By having the Cratchits, and his nephew, since Bob Cratchit is both in this version, visit Scrooge's grave, it eliminates Scrooge dying and lying in an lonely grave, with nobody mourning his death. However everything else was pretty accurate to the book, except for Scrooge and Bell meeting at school instead of at the Christmas party, although I didn't mind that as much as the changes to Christmas future, and I also didn't mind Them changing the ghosts to angels.
The fact that the rest of the the book is accurate to the original A Christmas Carol , for the most part, is why I gave this 4 stars.
