Tom Sawyer

By: Mark Twain

Age Recommendation 7+

4.2/5

Tom Sawyer is an incorrigible kid who is always getting himself in trouble. He also knows how to trick the other kids in the neighborhood into doing his chores, escaping punishment from his aunt and escaping his responsibilities. He makes friends with Huckleberry Finn, a kid that has no guardians and “the trouble doubles.” 

 

This book is a good book, but there is the “N” word in some of the different versions. Overall It’s a great book you can get the shorted version for younger kids and the original version for other kids.
