| Publisher Description: This early work is Charles Dickens' 1871 short children's story, "A Child's Dream of a Star". It is the charming and heart-warming tale of a brother and sister's musings on life and death inspired by night-time star-gazing. This timeless and delightfully-illustrated story would make for a fantastic addition to any family collection, and is not to be missed by lovers of Dickens' seminal work. Charles John Huffam Dickens (1812-1870) was an English author widely considered to be the most important novelist of the Victorian era. Many classic books such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author. |
