Don't be like one or two members of Goodreads, who foolishly wrote reviews stating how saddened they were that this Dickens story was just not up to his iconic level of writing. Poppycock! Instead, read of the 100s of readers who loved this precious novel. North America is a wonderful, free place to live. Freedom of speech is the name of the game, and a gift I am very grateful to accept.
