Tom Sawyer is the protagonist in the work The Adventures of Tom Sawyer published by the American famous writer Mark Twain in 1876. He is a lively, imaginative child who also loves to cause trouble. One day, he lied to his aunt and was punished to paint the fence. Tom didn’t want to do it himself, so he came up with a good idea and finally had other children come to give him things in exchange for the chance to paint the fence. In this way, Tom easily completed the task. The reason those children were willing to work for Tom was that he tricked them into saying that painting was the most fun thing in the world. The strong summer sun shone on the Mississippi River and the woods. In the woods, he and Huck became pirates. Later, they accidentally got involved in a murder case. Tom helped arrest the murderer and also found treasure in the cave. These plot points are very suitable for children who are in a sensitive period and have a strong sense of adventure. This work is a sister piece to the author’s other work The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Through the perspective of the child Tom, the author critiques the hypocrisy of the adult society represented by Aunt Polly.
