A beautiful edition illustrated with more than 30 original illustrations

SeaWolf Press releases another title in its illustrated classic series. It contains the full text of the original book along with 30 illustrations from a 1900 release.

The Cricket on the Hearth was published in 1845 in a version with illustrations by 5 artists. This edition uses illustrations from a 1900 version. It was one of Dickens' five Christmas books. It is divided into chapters called "Chirps", similar to the "Staves" of A Christmas Carol. It is the story of John Peerybingle, a carrier, who lives with his young wife Dot, their baby boy and their nanny Tilly Slowboy. A cricket chirps on the hearth and acts as a guardian angel to the family.
