The storyline of this classic never fails to entertain. The only cons: promotes rebellious behavior, has some language, and some gory events take place. ( ) Still Going Strong After 150 Years The adventures (and misadventures) of an imaginative, mischievous 12-year-old boy in a Mississippi River town in Missouri in the mid-19th century. Most Americans first read it as children about Tom's age, and most are captivated by it. Yet this is one of those very rare children's books which can be reread many times well into old age and always reveal something new (and often laugh-out-loud funny). The hero is a boy, but Mark Twain's insights into human nature reveal as much about adults as they do about children.

HTML: The orphan Tom Sawyer, raised by his aunt, is never out of trouble for long. A mischievous, charming boy (not to mention genius at escaping from trouble), Tom's adventures involve many unwitting bystanders. From one moment to the next, the boy could change into a pirate, or ship's captain - when he's not trying to win Becky Thatcher for a sweetheart, of course. Tom is also a friend of Twain's other beloved boy-hero, Huckleberry Finn. .No library descriptions found. |
