Synopsis
It’s the holiday season, and Devin and Frankie could use a lesson in selflessness—who better to teach them than Ebenezer Scrooge?It’s Christmastime at Palmdale Middle School, and the sixth grade class has organized a holiday banquet for local families in need. Best friends Devin and Frankie are excited to eat, but they forgot to bring in food donations—and they didn’t read A Christmas Carol for English class. While the two fight over the library’s last copy of the book, the library’s magical security gates suddenly transport them straight into the classic novella, where they meet the infamous Ebenezer Scrooge! Mr. Scrooge is more than a little grouchy, but he’s in for a wake-up call when three ghosts visit him on Christmas Eve.The two friends follow as the ghosts show Scrooge the consequences of all the selfish choices he’s made in his life. But Scrooge isn’t the only one in for a lesson; Devin and Frankie have a few things to learn about kindness and generosity, as well!
