The Adventures Of Tom Sawyer( Series - Aladdin Classics )

Tom Sawyer is not only the character of Mark Twain's first novel, but his story is Twain's most popular title. Could fun-loving Tom in fact be Twain himself at a young age? Foreword by Bruce Brooks. Includes a reading group guide.

Here is the story of Tom, Huck, Becky, and Aunt Polly; a tale of adventures, pranks, playing hookey, and summertime fun. Written by the author sometimes called "the Lincoln of literature," "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer" was surprisingly neither a critical nor a financial success when it was first published in 1876. It was Mark Twain's first novel. However, since then "Tom Sawyer" has become his most popular work, enjoying dramatic, film, and even Broadway musical interpretations.
