Inhaltsangabe:
The extraordinary genius of Charles Dickens is brought to life for primary-age children by the author-illustrator team behind the best-selling What Mr Darwin Saw. Published to celebrate the bicentenary of Dickens' birth, this beautifully illustrated picture book vividly dramatizes his life and key incidents that inspired the later novels. What emerges is a touching portrait of a writer who possessed amazing observational skills, a social conscience and a strong sense of drama.
