Charles Dickens
The famous British author Charles Dickens was born on February 7, 1812, in Portsmouth, on the southern coast of England. He was the second of eight children. When Charles was just 12 years old, the family’s financial situation got worse. His father, John Dickens, had a dangerous habit of spending more money than he earned. John Dickens was sent to prison for debt in 1824, and Charles Dickens had to forget about education and to go to work at a factory. At the age of sixteen, Dickens got himself a job as a reporter and joined the staff of The Mirror of Parliament, a newspaper that reported on the decisions of Parliament. In 1836-1837 he wrote a humorous series of sketches “The Pickwick Papers” which became very popular. Within a few years he was considered to be one of the most successful authors of his time.​
