Informazioni su questo ebook

Here is the story of Tom, Huck, Becky, and Aunt Polly; a tale of adventures, pranks, playing hookey, and summertime fun. One of the nineteenth century's greatest chroniclers of childhood, Mark Twain's novel captures the sheer pleasure of being a boy. Tom Sawyer is as clever, imaginative, and resourceful as he is reckless and mischievous, carrying on under the watchful eye of his Aunt Polly. Part trickster, part escape artist, and full-time romantic, he spins fantastic tales of noble derring-do and adventure--dragging his pal Huck Finn and his 'sweetheart' Becky Thatcher into a real-life escapade involving theft, courtroom drama, and murder.
