| I have heard about many of the essays included in this text and was excited to find that I could get them all in one book. I love the footnotes for additional information and the fact that the essays include both sides to teaching this book. I highly recommend for anyone who needs to know more about this classic text. |

| This is a great book! It is well written and the story line is very easy to follow. This book was one of three books that was required summer reading for my daughter's 6th grade class and she loved it as well. It gave her a different perspective on the different and most often times unfair treatment African American received during the 1930s. I strongly recommend this book to every young person to learn a few of life's lessons. |

| This short novel for boys tells how a white American boy becomes marooned with an old West Indian black man on a tiny island during World War II. It's simple, direct, often exciting, truthful, and well-observed. Along with the story of this archetypal relationship (which is much like that between Huckleberry Finn and Jim) it tells a good deal about the fundamentals of life on a Caribbean reef island (the "cay") and about the direct experience of a hurricane. This is a solid, serious, engaging and accessible ... Read More: |

| This was a trip back for me in two ways. For one, it takes place in a different time when life was a little simpler. Also it takes me back to the first time I read it. I am 50 years old and haven't read this since elementary school. Even though it is set back in time, I could relate to the feelings of these young boys and remember well that time of my life.
It's a must read for your kids (particularly boys) and anyone who has or has not read it. I haven't enjoyed a book this much in a long time. Read More: |

| I received this book from a friend at Christmas when I was a child. I always loved it. I sent a copy to my great granddaughters 8th birthday last year with a couple of other story books and she said she loved all of them. |

| I couldn't put the book down. It's horrible. I'm sorry the book - and, aparently, Shawn's life - are so short.
The book is powerful because of all the here-and-now details: the fly crawling on Shawn's face and he can't do anything to stop it; the taste of the bbq-flavored potato chip Shawn's brother slips into his mouth; the vivid descriptions of what it's like to experience a seizure. A short, powerful book. |

| Mark Twain's great American classic cannot be classified as any other than children's literature, but don't let that scare you more advanced readers away. This book is nothing other than a joy to read, and I am glad I made the effort to revisit this memorable read from my youth. Light-hearted fun and mischief, along with brilliant looks into the psyches of young boys put this book up around the most enjoyable one I've read in a long while.
As Tom and Huck live out their fantasies, and go through a series of good times and ... Read More: |

| I nearly fell asleep while reading this book. It only gets more than 1 star from me because of the somewhat predictable plot twist at the end. |
