Samuel Langhorne Clemens mais conhecido por Mark Twain é o criador da dupla mais famosa da literatura americana – Tom Sawyer e Huckleberry Finn.

Quando era adolescente vi, à boleia do meu irmão mais novo, alguns episódios da série de animação, na RTP2, As aventuras de Tom Sawyer, e quando andei no 10º ou 11º ano tive como leitura obrigatória, em Inglês, [b:The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn|2956|The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn|Mark Twain|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1546096879l/2956._SX50_.jpg|1835605], que na época não foi das leituras mais agradáveis.

Tom Sawyer é um rapaz órfão, que vive nas margens do rio Mississipi com a tia Polly. Tom gosta de pescar, de aventuras emocionantes que muitas vezes são imaginárias, de brincar aos piratas, de frequentar cemitérios e casas assombradas. É numa dessas brincadeiras que as coisas se tornam bem reais e assustadoras.

Gostei da escrita de Mark Twain, e acima de tudo diverti-me bastante com esta leitura.

As Jack Edwards said, "A Clothbound Classic!". There aren't many phrases out there which would describe this book more accurately. But if I read it as a child, I would have loved it more and dare I say I would have aspired to be more like Tom Sawyer :")
I had this book in my collection for over 12 years and I'm glad that I finally came around and finished it. It was a good read
