Reviewer:  Rahul K. '12

Tom Sawyer is about a boy who is very mischievous and is always getting into trouble. One day Tom and his friend Huckleberry Finn witness Injun Joe murder a doctor. They then sign an oath saying that they will not reveal their secret. Injun Joe blames someone else for the murder. Tom and Huck run away from home and head for Jacksons Island. Now everyone thinks that they have drowned and the town plans their funeral. But, Tom and Huck ... show up for their own funeral!

I recommend this book to people who love adventure books. This story is full of many twists and surprises. I assure you that you will not be able to put this book down once you start reading.

The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is about a boy named Tom and his friend, Huck. Tom and Huck go on many adventures and are always getting into trouble. One of their adventures is when they are running away from home. They act like pirates who are searching for hidden treasures. They pretend that they are spying on a murderer in a graveyard.

This book is good for people who like reading about adventures. It can be funny at times. I really enjoyed reading this book and definitely recommend it.
