For years Dickens kept the story of his own childhood a secret. Yet it is a story worth telling. For it helps us remember how much we all might lose when a child's dreams don't come true . . . As a child, Dickens was forced to live on his own and work long hours in a rat-infested blacking factory. Readers will be drawn into the winding streets of London, where they will learn how Dickens got the inspiration for many of his characters. The 200th anniversary of Dickens's birth was February 7, 2012, and this tale of his little-known boyhood is the perfect way to introduce kids to the great author. This Booklist Best Children's Book of the Year is historical fiction at its ingenious best.

Differentiated book- It has a historical context with research of the time-A Child's Dream of a Star by Charles Dickens.This book contains a historical context, where past events or the study and narration of these events are examined. The historical context refers to the circumstances and incidents surrounding an event. This context is formed by everything that, in some way, influences the event when it happens. A fact is always tied to its time: that is, to its time. Therefore, when analyzing events that took place tens, hundreds or thousands of years ago, it is essential to know the historical context to understand them. Otherwise, we would be analyzing and judging what happened in a totally different era with a current perspective.This first work is Charles Dickens' 1871 children's tale, A Child's Star Dream. It is the charming and moving story of a brother and sister's reflections on life and death inspired by nighttime star gazing. This timelessly deliciously illustrated story would make a fantastic addition to any family collection, and lovers of Dickens's seminal work can't miss it. Charles John Huffam Dickens (1812 1870) was an English author widely regarded as the most important novelist of the Victorian era.
