Download or read book A Christmas Tree Illustrated written by Charles Dickens and published by . This book was released on 2020-09-15 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps best described as Dickens's ``other'' Christmas story, this is an elderly narrator's reminiscence of holidays past, each incident inspired by the gifts and toys that decorate the traditional tree. There is a range of appeal in the story itself, from snug memories of beloved toys to the passing along of eerie stories surrounding various childhood haunts.
