This boy is the fear and dread of adults. Of parents, uncles, teachers, and clergy. He is the envy of his peers. Of his classmates, cousins, and friends. He is the first love of girls. He is the hero who will save the village from Indian Joe and rescue Becky from the labyrinthine McDougal cave. He is the boy who, if he lived today, would be taken to child psychologists to find out what his problem is. He is Tom Sawyer. A now-classic, funny and exciting book that talks about carefree childhood, the pranks that children play, first loves, adventures, and the dangers from which they survive.
