Putting a spin on the classic A Christmas Carol, > Codell and Pham follow Old Scroogemacher, a tyrant who experiences a Hanukkah like no other, in which three rabbis manage to turn him into a mensch. Full color.
Loosely based on "A Christmas Carol" by Charles Dickens.
In this spin on A Christmas carol, Old Scroogemacher is a tyrant to the poor workers in his waistcoat factory, even on the last night of Hanukkah. Visited by three rabbis, Scroogemacher travels from the time of the Maccabees to present day.
