Classic Starts(r) the Adventures of Tom Sawyer

Why don't they give information that it's kiddish variant of the book and very far away from original Mark Twain ? Very disappointing. They even renamed Indian Jo - to some kind of Chinese person Injun Joe ! Bad.

This book was just as advertised. It allowed for easy readability and understanding of an American classic.

These are just fantastic books. Tom Saywer is the first of these classics that I read to my kids and they absolutely loved it. The book itself is beautifully bound and seems like almost a collectors item. I found that they really did manage to capture all the best parts of the original and kept the pace going so the kids couldn't get enough. Well done....will collect all the Classic Start books!

My third grader loved this book, as well as the one about Huck Finn. He's not one to just pick up a book and start reading. He has to be motivated and encouraged! So, to see him WANT to read this book without me pushing him ~~~ means it MUST be good! He said it was full of adventure and he loves adventure. These Classic Start books are GREAT! I highly recommend!!!

Think about this for a sec... Your going to a grave yard at mid night with a friend to see if devils are really and if there take the body of a dead man who died a couple days befor. Any way you and your friend are waiting for the monsters to come and take the bait but as your waiting you hear a sound but its not what you expect. Its three intirely different people coming for the goods left in the cofin. But then out of no were one of them kills his partnerand blames the other one for doing it! Then you and your friend relize your in grave danger, if the murder finds out that you know what he did then he'll come after you and your buddy next!How did Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn do it? find out by reading The Adventures of Tom Sawyer.
