About this listen
A Halloween treat, much better than sweets.
"A time for candy and costumes,
Pumpkins and ‘Trick or Treat’.
But beware of the bully
Lurking just down the street."
Ebenezer is really excited! It’s his first Halloween to go out trick-or-treating. Jacob Marley is excited, too, but this school bully plans to steal all the kids’ sweets. Can Eb and his friends, along with the magical clock Grandfather Time, teach Jacob the error of his ways? Or is the boy doomed to a life of crime, just like his wicked father?
The story of Ebenezer and the bully is a magical rhyming tale of why behavior matters and the importance of being kind. It’s a treat for families to share or for listening alone, aimed at children aged eight-12 years old. With characters loosely based around the Charles Dickens classic A Christmas Carol, you’ll meet the ghost of Christmas Past - a golden red puppy named Miss Ruby Heart - along with the Grim Reaper who will surprise Jacob by revealing his future self.

Another cute title in this series
Like its predecessor, this book gives us a child-themed poetic twist on A Christmas Carol. This time it's focused on a bully. On one hand, I'm not sure how long this series can continue to exploit the same formula. On the other hand, the thousands of existing versions of A Christmas Carol prove that it's as infinitely adaptable as their are authors to do so. This series choice to tell the stories in rhyme is a fun touch.

Time's phantom's visit All Hallows Eve
An excellent follow-up to the first story of Young Ebenezer. Father Time has taken an interest in a young man from Young Ebenezer's school. A name we might recognize from A Christmas Carol.
This is another short story in rhyme like the last story although longer than the last one.
This one can be a bit scary for younger audiences. My daughter asked me to turn it off.
Over 10 should be fine.

Fantastic Take on a Classic
I thought this was a unique retelling of A Christmas Carol. What I love most, is that it is a famous Christmas story as the inspiration but set for Halloween. Kind of like The Nightmare Before Christmas. Is it a Halloween or Christmas movie? The poetry was great and smooth.
Bill Schafer has such a rich, smooth voice. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to him and would easily listen to something else narrated by him. He also kept a very steady tempo/pace of the reading.
Fabulously done all around!
