Best Answer

Dickens called his story A Christmas Carol because he expected the story to be repeated and shared and and used to bring people together in a similar manner to the singing of Christmas carols which even now spread joy and bring friends and families together each year throughout London. Dickens carol was to be a song of praise for the Christmas season and of the redemption of Ebenezer Scrooge. Dickens cleverly called the five chapters of the book "staves." A musical stave is a stanza with a consistent theme and mood. Each stave in the story delivers a different message and each has a definite mood. As in a carol each "stave" can stand alone but each contributes to the carol's overall theme and meaning
