I enjoyed this one more than Tom Sawyer, sorry Tom. The pacing was worlds better and the adventure was nonsensical and fun (ignoring the racism which is....a lot). While I understand this is a "product of its time" that excuse does fall flat in the face of stereotyping and racism included with every page. I'm glad I read these before diving into James I think they will add a layer to the story that I'll appreciate.
