This engaging, colorful and attractive anthology with some moving parts was published to celebrate the bicentenary of Dickens birth in 2012. It is a fold-out / open-up overview of Dickens's life and famous works. Though fairly limited in total pages, their healthy 4to size and lively detailing includes many illustrations: some flip up; others are in pouches or letters.
Like NEW: Very tight, bright, and clean. No previous owner or remainder marks. Great fun for someone wanting to explore this protean novelist and his creations.
