CHARLES DICKENS
Sure, you have heard of The Christmas Carol but do you know who wrote it? If you said, Charles Dickens – you’re right! But, can you name any other novels that he wrote? Well, here’s an issue that will help you answer the second question, and send you looking for more works by this English writer. He was a great one for writing in installments, and you’ll have a chance to find out what that’s like. You’ll also meet a few of the 13,143 characters he created and learn why he felt it was important to expose the terrible conditions in which some children lived. Another treat will be an interview with Dickens’ great-great-great grandson. All this and much more is waiting for you—so get your passport in order, and CALLIOPE will whisk you to Dickens’ England.
