"Ah, childhood. Boys. Long summer days, barefoot, fishing, swimming, laughter, pocket knives, dirty hands, dirty faces, sweaty brows, trouble, joy. The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is an unmistakable celebration of youth and in particular boyhood." -From Toby Sumpter's Introduction

Look Inside the Book

"I suppose we all have our foibles. I like the exact word, and clarity of statement, and here and there a touch of good grammar for picturesqueness." -Mark Twain

Tom Sawyer lives a carefree life in the town of St. Petersburg on the Mississippi River, only needing to outwit his strict Aunt Polly or his petulant classmates upon occasion. But Tom and his best friend Huck get into real trouble when they witness a grave-robbery-turned-murder, and Tom's testimony makes him Injun Joe's next target. Not even a killer with a vendetta can halt Tom's efforts to win pretty Betty Thatcher's heart, though—especially once reports of buried gold and unexplored caves arise.
