#TLT #ThreeListThursday

1) A recent tradition is to listen to A Christmas Carol. Love the Tim Curry edition but the Hugh Grant version is good, too.
2) I also have some kids books I read yearly: Yes, Virginia There is a Santa Clause, A Charlie Brown Christmas, The Polar Express and a few others
3) Winter Poems

Thanks for the opportunity to think about something else for a bit.

dabbe THANK YOU! I'm making a list, and checking it twice. Thank you for sharing and making the end of this week nice. 🩵❄️🩵

My fave: A Charlie Brown Christmas (the tv special, too, of course!) 🤩

Outside of Halloween, “scary ghost stories and tales of the glories” have also been a part of Christmas celebrations for certain cultures for centuries.

He had no further intercourse with Spirits, but lived upon the Total Abstinence Principle, ever afterwards; and it was always said of him, that he knew how to keep Christmas well, if any man alive possessed the knowledge. May that be truly said of us, and all of us! And so, as Tiny Tim observed, God bless Us, Every One!

As we come to the close of another year, never forget the true meaning of the holiday season: the uber wealthy getting scared into becoming compassionate & empathetic human beings.

Listening to 5 productions of this was an absolute delight. Curry brings the spookiness, Stewart a gravitas, Grant reminds me of listening to my grandfather read me stories, Dale is always a joy to listen to, & Burton is everything my reading 🌈heart needs. 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗

Andrew65 Absolutely brilliant 👏👏👏🙌 10mo

I read A Christmas Carol every year. This particular edition has the original illustrations; unfortunately, they are difficult to see in this ebook edition which isn‘t formatted that great. I also finished The Wishing Bridge and listened to Letters From Father Christmas, which is better as either a print book or an ebook because of the illustrations. I hope everyone has had a wonderful holiday. Starting Death and Papa Noel.

Merry Christmas friends! This year I listened to this audio version of A Christmas Carol. I enjoyed it because I do love this story, but this won‘t become a favorite version. It sounds a bit odd to say, but I think I find Hugh Grant‘s voice too pleasant for most of this story. I like it better with a deeper or gruffer voice.

Straight up, these three are my favorite versions of A Christmas Carol and I've consumed them all in the last 24 hours. Tim Curry's narration is unbeatable but Hugh Grant has his moments. And for pure, sweet nostalgia (with a dash of childhood terror, because my GOD, I should not have watched a cartoon character descend into a fiery grave at the age of 4!), I'm going for Mickey every time. Do you have a favorite Christmas Carol, fellow Littens?

Confession: I am not a fan of Dickens. Please don‘t hate me! But, he is just not for me.

However, after @MallenNC posted her read of A Christmas Carol with Hugh Grant as the narrator, I had to try it. I liked it! Grant does well reading the story. It was a nice listen while baking cookies.

MallenNC I‘m glad you liked it! Hugh is a great narrator. I love A Christmas Carol and A Tale of Two Cities (mostly bc my teacher was so great the year we read it) but a lot of his other work is not my favorite either. 11mo
Librarybelle @MallenNC I‘d like to try Bleak House at some point, since it‘s such a dark tale, but nothing else I‘ve tried by him has interested me. 11mo
MallenNC @Librarybelle I watched a tv version of that one but haven‘t read it maybe the audiobook version would work! 11mo

MallenNC @OriginalCyn620 He really did! He has just the right amount of grumpiness in his voice for it. 11mo

2. All I want for Christmas is the Christmas gift of a man with the best taste in music. (I could get behind this gift. I do really enjoy my movie/tv score music!)

3. The tagged book- A Christmas Carol. Fond memories of reading it in class, while eating a candy cane.

We all know the story, it's been adapted for films and TV goodness knows how many times. Scrooge's name has become part of the language. And yet, even after having read it three or four times, I still found the story of Scrooge's reformation moving.

Got our first #teamread for #GhostsofXmas read. I‘d read it in high school so it‘s been a good 15 years or so. It was nice to revisit a classic, especially given how many versions there are of this story in movie form now. Is it my favorite? No, but it is a classic you have to appreciate and who doesn‘t love a bit of a redemption story.

🍿 What are your favourites? My top two are Muppet Christmas Carol (hence the tag), and Emmet Otter's Jug Band Christmas.

🍿 Do you have any seasonal traditions? For movies not really.

🍿 What films bring you comfort and joy? I have a huge soft spot for the incredibly twee Depression era films meant to cheer people up during bitter winters.
