The Child's Story (1852) is a parable about life's journey, in which a traveler asks all he meets, "What do you do here?" and they invite him to join them, until it's time to move on. Everyone begins life's journey as a child. From one of the world's most beloved writers comes this memorable parable of life's transitions.Originally published by Charles Dickens in the mid-1800s, The Child's Story is a timeless account of the journey we all take, from carefree childhood and spontaneous youth, through adulthood and marriage, and into our golden years. The book was published as one of Dickens’ annual Christmas short stories. It is a good story, relevant to the readers, and it has deep meaning towards life. The story is being delivered in a casual language and chronological order. The message of the story tells us to be grateful for what we’ve been through and what we’ll be through in the future.
