Tom Sawyer

09 Jun 2025

Description

Send us a textThe Adventures of Tom Sawyer, written by Mark Twain and published in 1876, is a classic American novel set in the fictional town of St. Petersburg, Missouri, along the Mississippi River in the 1840s. Drawing from Twain’s own childhood in Hannibal, Missouri, the story follows the mischievous and imaginative Tom Sawyer, a young boy whose adventures—ranging from whitewashing a fence to witnessing a murder and finding lost treasure—capture the joys, fears, and moral growth of youth. Through its blend of humor, nostalgia, and social commentary, the novel explores themes of freedom, friendship, and the tensions between societal expectations and individual spirit, cementing its place as a timeless celebration of boyhood and a vivid portrait of small-town life in pre-Civil War America.Hi fans!
