Description

Freddy and Alice are vacationing in London with their parents. One morning, while walking down Doughty Street, they make an extraordinary encounter: Charles Dickens, the great nineteenth-century novelist, offers to be their guide. This is the beginning of an unexpected visit to Victorian London, a city full of contrasts and interesting places. There are the popular suburbs with their dismal factories, the lively port, the market lanes, the smoky pubs, a railroad station. And next to them the places where the wealthy spend their leisure time, like the pleasure gardens of Vauxhall and the Kensington hippodrome. 

The children visit historical monuments such as the Tower of London, Westminster Abbey, Parliament, and Buckingham Palace where the queen lives. Dickens even takes them to see the Great Exhibition at Crystal Palace. Join Freddy and Alice on their adventurous tour through Victorian London!
