Dickens was born in Portsmouth in the south
of England, but the family moved to London
Mark /10
when he was ten years old. He had a difficult
childhood. His father spent a long time in prison
Total /60
and Charles had to work in a factory from the
age of twelve. Later his family received money
from his father s family and their life became
better. Charles studied law but he hated it and
became a journalist. This was when he started
writing his books.
Dickens s books are wonderful pictures of life
in the big city of London at that time and are
full of amazing characters. These characters
are often very sad and very funny at the same
time. Dickens wrote a lot about poor people
and he wanted to show what life was like for
them, so his characters lives are not very happy.
But Dickens s way of writing is very clever and
funny and the characters can make us laugh!
