Then one fateful night they witness a murder. The boys swear never to reveal the secret and run away to be pirates and search for hidden treasure. But when Tom gets trapped in a cave with the murderer, can he escape unharmed? Richard Peck is an American novelist known for his young adult books. He was awarded American's highly prestigious Newbery Medal in 2001 for his novel "A Year Down Yonder". Average Rating:
 Rating:  - THE ADVENTURES OF TOM SAWYER by Mark TwainThe Adventures of Tom Sawyer is a novel by Mark Twain, originally published in 1876. In this review, I will not attempt to analyze it from any pretentious literary perspective, but rather as just another novel. In this novel, Tom Sawyer, a boy who lives with his aunt on the Mississippi River in Missouri, has all kinds of adventures, most of which involve misbehaving in some way.

I couldn't get into the story at all. The blatant racism my have played a part. If I could have a quarter for every time the N word is thrown around, I'd be rich. Avoid this and all other Twain if you can help it. Rating: - Yes, it's a classic for a reason.I somehow tragically managed to make my way to adulthood with never reading anything but the kiddie version of this book.

And thus I picked it up and immediately fell in love with the sheer Old-South charm that only Twain can deliver. Really, people, it is no wonder that this book is such a classic! It may not have the soulful human reflections of "Huckleberry Finn", but in the solemn concern for ...

The kids love them and I think it makes them interested in reading. Rating: - Superbly illustrated, it captures the essence of Tom Sawyer the bookTo understand America in the nineteenth century, you must understand Tom Sawyer. His life, so full of adventure set amidst the bustle of a changing nation, is in many ways the dream of nearly all male children. To spend your time swimming in the creek, gathering "treasures" and eating goodies is truly the good life. Tom's romance with Becky is also the way it is with most boys. Girls are universally considered to have some kind of contagious disease, when I was young, they had cooties, until you see ... Read More
