A companion to the author’s Ten Boys from Dickens, this book draws the stories of ten girls out of the novels and tells each as a simple tale of girlhood, largely in Dickens’s own words. Little Nell and her grandfather, the downtrodden Marchioness, Morleena Kenwigs, the Infant Phenomenon, Jenny Wren, Sissy Jupe and Florence Dombey are among them.
A gentle introduction to Dickens for young readers not yet ready for the full novels. Download the free EPUB.
