"The Cricket on the Hearth" is Charles Dickens 1845 novella, which marks the third of five Christmas books written by the author between 1843 and 1847. It is the story of John Peerybingle and his family who are visited by a guardian angel in the form of a cricket who is constantly chirping on their hearth. A delightfully fantastic story, «The Cricket on the Hearth» was the best-selling of Dickens five Christmas books and is a perfect little tale for the Christmas holiday season.
