Mark Twain
The book that introduced the world to the iconic American characters of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn, this 1876 novel by Mark Twain follows the mischievous exploits of the two young boys, who find themselves in situations both humorous and dangerous. Never short of ways to stir up trouble in his hometown on the Mississippi River, Tom uses his wits to get both in and out of tight spots, often with Huck at his side. Featuring moments of significant social commentary, these interconnected tales essentially served as a dry run for Twain's notably weightier sequel, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.

"this was just so cute and fun! of course a lot language and politics are outdated but since it's about these kids, they don't seem to care much about that sort of prejudice. as are as older classics go, this is fantastic. I wish I had read this in school rather than **** like heart of darkness"

"One of my favorite books ever! Tom Sawyer is such a fun character and really helps you understand what it's like to be a boy. This book made me laugh out loud and roll my eyes. Amazing coming-of-age book that I think every person should read! Helps you to enjoy the little Precious Moments in life."
