This was great! I love your creativity in this piece. I never would have thought to write a Christmas Carol with Bigfoot, but your story had me smiling. My only suggestion would be to maybe add some more length to the ending paragraph, but it still works as is. I look forward to reading more of your work.

This is wonderful, and I'd say it's marketable. I never imagined Bigfoot in "A Christmas Carol" scenario, but it works really well. The name of Tiny Tina was a tip-off to the Christmas Carol analogy. You did a great job of introducing the ghosts and showing how Bigfoot changes as a result of the visits. How nice that Tiny Tina, the owlet, was saved. Beautiful work, and really promote it, so more will have the opportunity to read it. judi

You have written a friendly spoof of the Dickens work.. A Christmas Carol... I think your likable Bigfoot has a lot of redeemable qualities that come to the fore at the end of the verse. Well done on a cute rendition.

Comment from Connie C
It's been a long time since I've been on FanStory, so what a surprise to see that you're writing stories as well as poetry. And what a great little story this is too, Elaine. I love how you incorporated all these animals into this Christmas Carol themed story.
You mention your struggles with sentence structure and grammar. I was an English teacher and breezed right through your story not noticing any errors! Excellent job, my friend.

Comment from Wabigoon
Mermaids--
I am not a big fan of A Christmas Carol. It is what happens after everything is taken from us-- then "God" can return those things He, his religion stole and people like Dickens will write books about it that make them famous. I don't think that's exactly your purpose but why not imagine something really different?
I noticed this:
and happiness a(t) he watches the gathering. "As," I presume?

I appreciate your taking time to read, especially since you are not a fan of the story. I have some editing to do and there are a few grammar mistakes in the story. Thanks so much for your generous amount of stars, I am honored. Elaine

Oh my, little children will surely love and beg for this story to be read again and again by their parents or grandparents. It is a beautiful animal story with a moral lesson that today are already forgotten to be taught to little kids. Thanks for sharing this excellent write,.
