Introduction
Hey there, awesome BookDuck readers! Here we are with another amazing story. We will get to know an imaginative and mischievous boy named Tom Sawyer and will get into a lot of trouble with him and his friends.
But before we go on an adventure with Tom Sawyer and his friends, we need to get familiar with the author of this fascinating story! Meet talented Mark Twain (his real name was Samuel Langhorne Clemens), who was an American writer, humorist, entrepreneur, publisher, and lecturer. He wrote “The Adventures of Tom Sawyer” in 1876.
Did you know that the book is loosely based on Twain's childhood exploits? This makes the novel even more interesting and intriguing. Tom Sawyer was not well-acclaimed upon its initial release, maybe because Tom was a very naughty boy, who knows?
Well, we’ll see.
As you already learned, this captivating novel is about Tom Sawyer, the clever troublemaker, who lives with his Aunt Polly and his brother Sid. The first time we meet Tom, he's in Aunt Polly's pantry, stealing from the jam jar. This is only the beginning of his adventures. You’ll see, the story will keep you entertained from start to finish!
Let’s get started and face a lot of adventures and risky things with Tom Sawyer.
Ready? Here we go.
