Publisher's Synopsis
Can children today can imagine a world entirely unplugged and spent out-of-doors when the weather is fair? They - along with their appreciative parents - are able to revisit what that must have been like in The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, the bildungsroman of a young boy who lives in a fictional town along the Mississippi River in the 19th century. Without TV and video games to occupy his time, Tom - along with his willing comrade Huckleberry Finn, who would get his own novel - gets into scrape after scrape, racking up troubles even as he wins over his sweetheart Becky.
