Originally published in the 1850 Christmas edition of Dickens' journal Household Words, A Christmas Tree is considered to be one of Dickens's more autobiographical pieces. In it, decorations on the Christmas tree trigger the narrator's memories of Christmases past. This version of A Christmas Tree is part of Dreamscape's The Christmas Stories of Charles Dickens.
No other author made a greater contribution to the literature of Christmas than Charles Dickens. Collected here are twenty-three short works, some on the theme of Christmas, from «A Christmas Dinner» (1835) to «What Christmas Is As We Grow Older» to others that simply explore the function of kindness and goodwill in society, as in one of his last works, «No Thoroughfare» (1867). Read and reread these heartwarming classics every holiday season.
