COMMENT: Rascals are no longer just nauthy boys



The novel "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer" was written by Mark Twain and was published between 1876 and 1878. It’s a very entertaining novel.

This novel is about an imaginary boy (Tom Sawyer) who lives with his aunt Polly and brother Sid. The story takes place in St. Petersburg, on the banks of the Mississippi. Tom is an intelligent boy, but he doesn’t like going to school. He is always looking for a way to spend more time his friends. He and his friends, Joe Harper and Huckleberry Finn flee to an island to become pirates.

Born on November, 30 1835 in Florida (United States). His real name is Samuel Langhorne Clemens, he wrote such successful plays as “The Prince and the Beggar” or a “Yankee in the court of King Arthur”, but he achieved fame with the novels "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer" and "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn”. William Faulkner called Twain «the father of American literature».

Finally, “The Adventures of Tom Sawyer”, is a very interesting and funny novel, because the environment in which story develops makes the reader not bored. I recommend reading this novel, both children and adults.

At this period the temperatures are very high and it interacts more with the environment. It is very important not to throw rubbish into the forest or anywhere else.
