The author's name is Charles Dickens. He wrote the story during a time of sheer desperation at the then Governments attitude to child labour and the way these children some as young as 8 years old were forced to work long hours in factories and even in the mines.

Charles Dickens. It is properly A Christmas Carol. The unofficial title, based on the lead character, is Scrooge. It is worth noting that the actual Christmas song which is sung in the end of the story is not identified by name. Hollywood has handled this, as has Broadway, in different ways- the All-hands nature of Silent Night is often used, as is the more British-sounding God rest ye merry Gentlemen. Actually Dickens does not say what song was sung!
