Description

In the 1840s Charles Dickens wrote 5 short stories with strong social and moral messages.

The Cricket on the Hearth: A Fairy Tale of Home, is the third of these stories.

Following the home life of John Peerybingle, the story introduces the many people in John's family and life along with a cricket that acts as the guardian angel of the family.

Like its predecessors, this story also contains heavy social and moral implications.

However it differs from A Christmas Carol and The Chimes, in that its main theme focuses on actions that affect the family rather than action affecting society as a whole.
