About this listen
The Cricket on the Hearth: A Fairy Tale of Home is a novella by Charles Dickens, published by Bradbury and Evans and released December 20, 1845. It is the third of Dickens' Christmas books, following The Chimes and A Christmas Carol.
The Cricket on the Hearth is a homely tale about stout parcel carrier John Peerybingle; his small young wife, Dot; Caleb Plummer and his blind daughter, Bertha; their employer, the gruff old Mr. Tackleton, and his young bride-to-be; and what portentous consequences the arrival of a mysterious old man means for them all.
Narrated by Michael Ward.
