Description
The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, America s boyhood story. Mark Twain brings to life the adventures of nineteenth-century boys growing up in the heartland. Tom Sawyer is every boy who ever longed to break free of Sunday clothes, chores and school to sail away on the mighty Mississippi, into danger and adventure with his pals. And who, at some point in his life, falls in love...often with more than one girl at a time. In Tom Sawyer, Twain has fired the imagination of youth for more than a century and a half, with tales of life on the river and growing up with a country. It s about society, and hypocrisy, about injustice and about friendship. It s a harpoon in the side of the stuffy side of life, but mostly it s about boys, wild and free, looking to live life on their own terms. This is the original coming of age novel, from America s master storyteller Mark Twain.
