A Christmas Tree 
‘A Excellent Christmas Story from Dickens’

Perhaps best described as Charles Dickens’s other’ Christmas story, ‘A Christmas Tree’ 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. This sweet short story told from the Christmas tree’s point of view is one of the best Christmas stories ever told. Christmas has not always been a public holiday; before the mid-1800s, it was primarily a religious celebration enjoyed by the wealthy. It was during Victorian times in Britain that Christmas became a national holiday and that many of the traditions.If there is one figure who shaped Christmas as we know it today, it is the author Charles Dickens. His seasonal short stories and books, and particularly his novella A Christmas Carol and A Christmas Tree published at the height of his popularity in 1800’s, were wildly fashionable.

Sobre o autor

‘For it is good to be children sometimes, and never better than at Christmas, when its mighty Founder was a child Himself.”Happy, happy Christmas! That can win us back to the delusions of our childhood days, recall to the old man the pleasures of his youth, and transport the traveler back to his own fireside and quiet home!”I will honor Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year.’ Charles Dickens
