Book Description
Tom Sawyer remains one of the most beloved characters in the history of fiction, and this best-selling reading gives Tom and his adventures new life. All the memorable characters and scenes are here in this unabridged version: Aunt Polly with her Bible-based morality, independent Huck Finn, the famous fence-painting scene, the night on Jackson's Island. The book is no saccharine tale of childhood; Tom and Huck also witness grave-robbing and murder one night at the graveyard where they've gone seeking adventure and a cure for warts. Twain's themes of adult hypocrisy and the importance of character remain resonant with today's readers - and now, listeners in this virtuoso performance of one of the greatest American classics.

Character voices. November 11, 2007
The narrator can make so many different character voices sometimes I could not believe they were done by only one person.
 Not bad with one exception May 1, 2007

The narration is arresting and dynamic, although jarring in one respect: I do not conceive of Huck as sounding like Bill Clinton when he is whining.
 this is wonder March 1, 2007

This books is great, and the narrator is great, too. You'll never regret buying this book.
It's about boyhood and adventures that Tom Sawyer, a playful boy, makes up as he goes along.
