ADVENTURES OF TOM SAWYER THE - CLA
* Prices displayed are in Australian Dollars and, where applicable, GST inclusive
Description:
<i>'He was not the model boy of the village. He knew the model boy very well, though, and loathed him.'</i><p>Tom Sawyer is too spirited for the schoolroom and too freedom-loving for Church. If he can find a way of getting out of work - by tricking his friends into whitewashing his Aunt Polly's fence - or sneaking away from home when he's supposed to be in bed, he will. His friend Huck Finn is even more of a vagabond, and together they run wild on the banks of the Mississippi with a band of boy pirates, explore a haunted house and discover buried treasure. Although originally written for younger readers, Mark Twain's masterly evocation of childhood is tinged with nostalgia for a lost innocence as Tom and his friends come into contact with the darker realities of the adult world.
