The Haunted Bookshop by Christopher Morley (1919) is a charming sequel to Parnassus on Wheels. The story is set in a secondhand bookstore in Brooklyn, owned by Roger Mifflin and his wife, Helen. Although the shop is not literally haunted, Roger calls it 'haunted' because it is filled with the spirit of great literature and the wisdom of authors past.The novel combines gentle humor, literary reflection, and a touch of mystery when a young advertising man, Aubrey Gilbert, becomes involved in a plot surrounding a missing book that may conceal a secret related to World War I espionage. Through witty dialogue and love for books, Morley celebrates the power of literature to shape minds and inspire change.         979-8-89718-805-5   A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens 76 A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens tells the story of Ebenezer Scrooge, a cold-hearted and greedy old man who despises Christmas and generosity.

He becomes kind, generous, and caring, especially toward Tiny Tim and the Cratchit family, proving that it’s never too late to change.
