The Adventures of Tom Sawyer

How should the boys employ their time if they are bored to death with their lessons and their school holidays are still far off? Several true friends and a bit of imagination — and a dull fence whitewashing turns into an entertainment which will bring a lot of boys’ treasures; the game of pirates and robbers will allow to feel free- and — easy life though it will make their grown-ups worry a great deal; and the night visit to the graveyard will make them heroes of the whole town.
