Young Scrooge
Young Scrooge: A Very Scary Christmas Story | R. L. Stine
7 posts | 6 read | 7 to read
Rick Scroogeman hates Christmas. He can't stand the carols and the pageants. He can't stand the lights and the mistletoe. But what he hates the most is having to watch the old movie A Christmas Carol every year at school. Since his name is Scroogeman, all of his classmates start calling him Scrooge. And he hates being called Scrooge. But everything starts to change when three ghosts visit him. At first, he thinks it's a dream. But then he realizes that it might be a nightmare. A nightmare that could become real. Young Scrooge: A Very Scary Christmas Story is a funny, scary middle-grade send up of A Christmas Carol, about a boy who hates Christmas, from bestselling Goosebumps author R. L. Stine.

So I didn't compleate the #beatthebacklist challenge for 2017. But I came close. It was 10 parts with prompts for 82 books. I finished 64. That's 78%. Not too shabby.

Smangela That‘s amazing 😳 6y

4⭐️ A holiday tale unlike any you have read, but with a familiar ring. Do you think the school bully knows he‘s a bully? What if he just thinks he is friends with everyone, and plays jokes on them. Well the 3 spirits of christmas are going to show this kid, what his teachers, mom, and principal could not. A fun holiday story for the younger set, that I could see there being a sequel. Over all holiday enjoyment.

vkois88 I didn't know he had written a holiday book. I'll have to see if I can hunt it down... also; I love and want your cup lol 6y
LibrarianRyan @vkois88 it came out last year. Book Outlet has it and BN had it in paperback. If you were my #muglove giftee I would get it for you. Bed Bath and Beyond. 6y
TheRomantiCate Love that cup!! 6y
vkois88 @LibrarianRyan idk why I just now saw your response :( You are too sweet, and thank you for letting me know where you got it! I missed out on the mug swap this go round 6y

I wanted to join the fun of the #Christmascarol #buddyread but have no desire to actually read a Christmas Carol. So instead, I'll be with you all in spirit as I spend my time with a little RL Stein. And yes this is the 4th book I have in process.

GlassAsDiamonds It‘s a great novella ... sure you can‘t be tempted? 6y
LibrarianRyan @GlassAsDiamonds absolutely. But I'll live vicariously. 6y
GlassAsDiamonds @LibrarianRyan probably the sanest approach!!! 😊😊😊 6y

Starting what I hope will be a fun Christmas read for years to come. Bought this at the end of summer and almost forgot about it!
