Tom Sawyer

Tom Sawyer

This is a fantastic book and it is about a boy named Tom Sawyer. It is an adventure book and is set 150 years ago on the Mississippi River in the South East of USA. I have been learning about the author's purpose. In this book it is to tell us how people lived and how they thought. I think this book is for 9-13 years. It is originally by Mark Twain (his real name was Samuel Clemens) but this book has been retold by M. C. Hall. I found the illustrations by Daniel Strickland dark and gloomy in this graphic novel. I found it historical and with interesting characters.
