You don't have to wait until you're older to become a Charles Dickens fan. To begin with, you can get acquainted with the heroes of his most famous works, specially retold for children. And not only. Don't you want to know a little more about your great-grandparents: what did they do? How did you dress? What did you read? Before you, reader, is an unusual book. It not only describes the adventures of Oliver Twist and Tiny Tim, David Copperfield and Little Nell... This book has its own story. A hundred years ago, English girls and boys leafed through its pages; they looked at the drawings with enthusiasm, laughed and cried along with its characters. Perhaps this edition, which reproduces the ancient book in the smallest detail, will help you fall in love with the works of the great English writer.
