A Child's History of England

Color your very own version of A Child's History of England by Charles Dickens Enhance a beloved classic book and create a work of art

For young Victorians, Charles Dickens traced the history of his country from the mysterious Druids and noble King Alfred to Henry VIII and the Glorious Revolution of 1688. Anecdotes and colorful stories pepper this collection of historical vignettes, written with the taleteller's usual panache. Dickens' witty, opinionated views on English history also shed light on his own political and religious views.

To whet his children's appetites for more substantial works of history, the author dedicated this lively narrative to them. British schoolchildren studied the book well into the twentieth century, and it remains a delight for all ages. In her own words, Alice Munro described it as "the first glimpse I ever had of history." It has the charm and recklessness and exaggeration of a spellbinding fairy tale.
