The Adventures of Tom Sawyer
Tom Sawyer turns life in the Mississippi River town of St. Petersburg into a succession of schemes, games, truancy, treasure hunts, and theatrical adventures. His mischief becomes dangerous when he and Huck Finn witness a murder and fear the violent man responsible. Tom's feelings for Becky Thatcher, flight to Jackson's Island, and exploration of a cave mix childhood fantasy with consequences he cannot simply charm away. Lively and satirical, this classic suits readers who enjoy boyhood adventures, small-town America, secret oaths, and a hero whose imagination creates both his worst trouble and his boldest courage.
