Dickens's Little Folks, in a Series of 18mo Volumes, with Illustrations,

  • 6. The Child Wife.

This is a series of volumes which has been undertaken with a view to supply
the want of a class of books for children, of a vigorous, manly tone, combined
with a plain and concise mode of narration. The writings of Charles Dickens
have been selected as the basis of the scheme, on account of the well-known
excellence of his portrayal of children, and the interests connected with children—qualities
which have given his volumes their strongest hold on the
hearts of parents. With this view the career of Little Nell and her
Grandfather, Oliver, Little Paul, Florence Dombey, Smike, and
the Child-Wife, have been detached from the large mass of matter with
which they were originally connected, and presented, in the author's own language,
to a new class of readers, to whom the little volume will, we doubt
not, be as attractive as the larger originals have so long proved to the general
public.
