What clever children!

Charles Dickens is one of the greatest novelist in the English literature. In his books he showed a real world and people of Victorian England.
Charles Dickens was born in Landport, Portsmouth in Hampshire in 1812. His father was a clerk and had eight children. The family was moderately wealthy, but his father always spent more money than he received. When Charles was 11 years old his family was put into prison for his father’s debts. Charles had to give up the school and work. He worked at the blacking factory ten hours a day and earned ten shillings which helped him to pay for his room and support his family. Charles hated it and never forgot the experience. He used it in many novels, especially in “David Copperfield” and “Oliver Twist”.

At the age of 15 he was lucky to get a job in a London lawyer’s office though he didn’t like this job. When he was 16 he started to work for a newspaper. And by the age of 25 he became one of the best journalist in London.
“The Pickwick Papers” was his first great work which made him popular.
On 2 April 1836, he married Catherine Thompson Hogarth. They set up home in Bloomsberry, where they had ten children. Dickens worked a lot. His books became very popular in many countries and he spent much time abroad. In the last years of his life he began to meet with his readers and to give public readings from his books. These meetings were very successful.
