The Story of Charles Dickens. Like all children the young Charles Dickens loved Christmas, and his parents made sure it was extra special - with dances, games, laughter and plum pudding. But when he was ten, his life changed dramatically - his father was thrown into the debtor's prison and Charles' magical childhood was at an end. In 'The Boy Who Invented Christmas', Andrew Billen tells the story of how Dickens became England's most famous writer - and chased the dream of a perfect Christmas all his life.
