Publisher Description

Everyone begins life's journey as a child. From one of the world's most beloved writers comes this memorable parable of life's transitions.

Originally published by Charles Dickens in the mid-1800s, "The Child's Story" is a timeless account of the journey we all take, from carefree childhood and spontaneous youth, through adulthood and marriage, and into our golden years.

Now, almost 150 years after its original publication, acclaimed artist Harvey Chan adds his stirring images to Dickens's classic words, creating a unique and powerful reading experience that's ideal for children of all ages.
