Though not his only Christmas-related work, A Christmas Story by Charles Dickens has become one of, if not the, most famous and celebrated Christmas stories of all time since its original publication in 1843. Owing to this, the book has never been out of print and its public domain status has seen it a number of adaptations over the years in just about any given medium, often (in the context of this blog) in cinema or as a stock plot for a Christmas episode or special in numerous television series, often animated. The countless interpretations of the story has led to some trying to find different ways to spin the story or, in the case of stories such as The Man Who Invented Christmas, exploring Dickens' writing process and backstory for the book, to varying results. With new adaptations of the story coming out on an annual basis, it appears that there is no stopping it any time soon.
Below is a list of links to every review of A Christmas Carol adaptations or related on this blog, listed in order of release.
