BR14: The Adventures of Tom Sawyer

     Today I read "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer", a book in the Oxford Bookworms Library series. It was written by Mark Twain, retold by Nick Bullard, and illustrated by Paul Fisher Johnson.




     Tom sawyer does not like school. He doesn't like work, and he never wants to get out of bed in the morning. But he likes swimming and fishing, and having adventures with his friends. And he has a lot of adventures. One night, he and his friend Huck Finn go to the graveyard to look for ghosts. They don't see any ghosts that night. They see something worse than a ghost - much, much worse...




     I personally love the famous wall-painted episodes. The episode is where Tom was asked by Aunt Polly to paint a wall that was never easy. I think that Tom is really clever. If you are interested, please read it. It's a so exciting story. I recommend it.
