    Charles Dickens worked since he was very young and he worked vey hard so many of his books are about the treats which children received in factories. Children did not receive good treats and worked many hours and earned a few maoney, their salary was not fair.

  2. Hi!
    Charles Dickens was born the 7 of February 1812 in Portsmouth. He married Catherine Thompson. Their children were:
    Charles Culliford Boz Dickens;
    Mary Dickens;
    Kate Macready Dickens;
    Walter Landor Dickens;
    Francis Jeffrey Dickens;
    Alfred D'Orsay Tennyson Dickens;
    Sydney Smith Haldimand Dickens;
    Henry Fielding Dickens;
    Dora Annie Dickens;
    Edward Bulwer Lytton Dickens.

    Many of his novels, with their recurrent concern for social reform, first appeared in magazines in serialised form, a popular format at the time. Unlike other authors who completed entire novels before serialisation, Dickens often created the episodes as they were being serialized. The practice lent his stories a particular rhythm, punctuated by cliffhangers to keep the public looking forward to the next instalment. The continuing popularity of his novels and short stories is such that they have never gone out of print.

    Do you know about Oliver Twist?I'm going to say something about it.
    Oliver Twist is the second novel by english author Charles Dickens.This story is about an orphan Oliver Twist, who escapes from a workhouse and travels to London where he meets the Artful Dodger,leader of a gang.
    An early example of the social novel.Dickens mocks the hypocrisies of his time by surrounding the novel's serious themes with sarcasm and dark humour.
