The Many Beautiful Editions Of is a recurring bookish feature where I showcase gorgeous editions of classic fiction novels. This time around, to celebrate Christmas Eve, I’m going to round-up the holiday-perfect covers for a Charles Dickens classic- A Christmas Carol.
Unlike my previous posts for this feature with Jane Austen novels and Little Women, I’ve actually read this one! To quote my favorite line from the book on the reason for this special feature: “I will honour Christmas in my heart.” Now check out these lovely A Christmas Carol covers!

Have you read A Christmas Carol? What do you think of these covers?

That last edition *drools* I own one of those Leather bound versions from the Brother’s Grimm and it’s such a beautiful book. I can’t wait to get more of those in my hands. I also love the cover from the Puffin chalk edition. I love all those details.
I know, right? I’m a bit envious, I badly want to own a leather bound edition myself. The Puffin Chalk editions are super adorable and pretty affordable though so I might get them instead. I already own Alice in Wonderland in this edition actually. :)
Oooh I love the Puffin Chalk edition! I have the Penguin Christmas edition but I may need to pick up another copy :-)
Same! It’s so pretty! The Penguin Christmas one is very cute. I saw it in the bookstore before and that’s actually why I got the idea to do this feature for A Christmas Carol. :D
AHHH I LOVE THESE. And I have to admit I particularly adore the first one….even though I don’t associate Christmas with snow. XD hehe. BuT STILL. Gorgeous!
I don’t associate Christmas with snow either since we don’t get that here in the Philippines but it’s also why I think it’s so magical (I seriously dream of having a snowy Christmas) since it’s so rare for me. But yeah, I LOVE the deep blue going on in that cover!
I love the white one! Thank you for featuring them all and giving me the exact link to where buy it! You’re really awesome, Hazel!
I generally love all the B&N leatherbound classics, but I think of all these the artwork on the Puffin Chalk edition is the nicest. Nice finds! :)
I’m pretty sure the Penguin Classics edition is my favorite cover for this novel! It just looks so pretty and minimalist <3
My favourite one is the last copy! I’ve been lusting over it since last Christmas!
