Pamela L. (grandpam) - , reviewed on + 70 more book reviews
A "must" read. Most of us had to read it at one time or another in school but it never loses it charm. Tom, who really is quite an upright little man even if Aunt Polly constantly despairs of him and Huck who has just been thrown away by his "paw." Becky has already acquired her femal wiles and they all have their great adventure in the cave with a real live honest-to-good mean Indian who would just as soon kill you as see you. Always a good read and then go on to read "Huck Finn" and "Puddinghead Wilson" and "An American Yankee in King Arthur's Court." Oh heck read them all, Mark Twain was, is and will be an American treasure with a sense of irony and humor to laugh at ourselves.
