Peter asked his mother to give him driving lessons. She was an instructor in a driving school, the best school in THEIR town. Peter KNEW that his mother could give him a hard time. She would be much STRICTER with him than with the other students. But Peter DIDN'T MIND that. He wanted to become a very good driver, which meant he should know the car inside out. His mother said she WOULD ALLOW him to join her course if he promised to fulfill all her requirements. And Peter agreed. In the morning he learnt the traffic rules in his mother’s classroom and in the evening he was in the garage studying what cars WERE MADE of. “It’s really important to understand how the engine WORKS,” Peter’s mother kept saying, “When you get your driving license, this knowledge WILL HELP you to drive responsibly.” Peter didn’t understand how the technical things could influence driving skills but he listened to his mother. “You HAVE LEARNT everything you need,” Peter’s mother said one day, “Now you are ready to take the driver’s seat.” Peter felt happy.

Dickens was born in Portsmouth February 7, 1812, and spent his childhood in Kent and London, both of which frequently appear in his novels.
He went to school being at the age of nine. When his father was committed to prison for debt in 1824, Dickens interrupted the school. The boy started working in a factory. Then from 1824 to 1826 Dickens attended the school again. However, at most, he was self-educated.
In 1827 Charles Dickens started to work as a legal clerk. Dickens published the first series of descriptive sketches in December 1833, using the pseudonym Boz. These series describe the daily life in London.
The success of the first novel The Pickwick Papers brought popularity to Dickens. And then he maintained subsequently his fame with a great string of novels.
