One of the great imaginative writers of all time, Charles Dickens was a consummate storyteller who could draw his readers into the heart of his narrative. Michael Rosen delves into Dickens's story-telling skills and techniques, including how his 'voice' appeared both as the narrator and in the minds and mouths of his characters. With the skill of the modern-day filmmaker, Dickens could convey the broadest scene to the most intimate detail.

Michael Rosen is a broadcaster, children's novelist and poet who was Children's Laureate from 2007 to 2009. He is the author of 140 books which include Dickens: His Work and His World later reformatted as What’s so special about Dickens? as well as contributing to numerous learning resources for schools on Charles Dickens.
