Happy Birthday Mr. Dickens!

One of my favorite authors has a big birthday today.

Charles Dickens 200th 

Did you know he saved Christmas?  Those of us who love Christmas have much to thank him for.

I don't know how we'll celebrate.  (Pinterest had no suggestions!)

I spent one winter pre-kiddos reading lots and lots of Dickens.

My favorite is Our Mutual Friend.

Our Mutual Friend (Penguin Classics)

You should read it.
