Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
Grade 4-8-- This short biography may not reach the audience for which it was intended because most readers of this age won't be familiar with Dickens's work, with the possible exception of A Christmas Carol . The text reads smoothly and quickly as it describes how Dickens managed to leave his poverty-stricken past behind, but not to forget it. It also serves as a vehicle to list all of his various works. The full-page pen-and-ink drawings are superb. A broad overview that might be best used as a hi/lo title. --Eldon Younce, Harper Elementary School, KS
