      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.

    • I believe I read this on my own. As I recall, Huckleberry Finn was required, but Tom Sawyer was not. I read Tom Sawyer (although not this edition) during the summer.

Book Description

This grand old childhood classic relates a small-town boy’s pranks and escapades with humor and wisdom that appeal to readers of every age. In addition to his everyday stunts (searching for buried treasure, trying to impress the adored Becky Thatcher), Tom experiences a dramatic turn of events when he witnesses a murder, runs away, and returns to attend his own funeral and testify in court.
