    I reread this book for an English Lit course in College. Its a great story for a youthful mind (or to make you feel like you have one). Definitely something you can read again - and if you haven't read it you just have to. There also is a completely different perspective on the story reading it as an adult than you saw when you were young. The whole slavery and the meaning of running away comes out... basically there is a lot more to this book than a story about a mischievous little boy.

Evoking life in a small Mississippi River town, Tom Sawyer is Twain's hymn to the secure and fantastic world of boyhood and adventure.
