520 _aCharles Dickens was one of the greatest among the many story-writers of “the Victorian age;” that is, the middle and latter part of the Nineteenth Century, when Victoria was Queen of Great Britain. Perhaps he was the greatest of them all for now, a generation after he passed away, more people read the stories of Dickens than those by any other author of that period. In those wonderful writings are found many pictures of child-life connected with the plan of the novels or stories. These child-stories have been taken out of their connections and are told by themselves in this volume. By and by you will read for yourselves, “The Christmas Carol,” “The Chimes,” “David Copperfield,” “The Old Curiosity Shop,” and the other great books by that fascinating writer, who saw people whom [4]nobody else ever saw, and made them real. When you read those books you will meet again these charming children, and will remember them as the friends of your childhood.
