Book Review by Seth B, grade 6
Tom Sawyer is a fiction book of 282 pages, written by Mark Twain. It was originally published in 1876.
This book is about Tom Sawyer and his adventures. It is a very humorous novel. The way they speak is very funny. The descriptions are hilarious. It is funny how Tom is always getting into trouble.
My favorite passage is where Tom sees Becky Thatcher: “He saw a new girl in the garden-a lovely little blue eyed creature with yellow hair plaited into two long tails, white summer frock, and embroidered pantalettes. The fresh crowned hero fell without firing a shot.” I like this passage because of its humor. Tom falls in love with Becky as soon as he sees her.
I like the book’s story line. Tom Sawyer is a very believable book. Tom and his friends do not do superhuman stunts. It is a very simple book, everything the characters do you can do yourself. Tom does not parachute off a cliff, or anything crazy like that, he does everyday things. The things that happen to him can happen to anyone. I like the book because a can relate some of the things that happen in it to my life.
