Hi Maria

Great to hear that you'd like to use this resource. I've run a quick search on the web, and you can access this extract online by searching for the publication 'Introducing Dickens'. We've emailed you as well so hopefully you'll find it and be able to use it with your classes!

Thanks, Helen (Teachit)
