I think it is extremely well done, attractive and fun. Given the thousands of adaptations of the story (since the very first for stage in 1844!), and accepting the necessary artistic license required of the form, I think it is very true to the essence and spirit of the tale. -- Dr. Cindy Sughrue * Charles Dickens Museum, London * Among so many illustrated retellings of Dickens, Search and Find: A Christmas Carol has a quirky gimmick for introducing the story to 3-6s, which makes it a parlour game to play on Christmas day. Adults must expand the story from a list of events; children have to find characters and objects in Louise Pigott's nostalgic set pieces. * Sunday Times *
