Adventures of Tom Sawyer (Dramatic Reading)

Rate this audiobook

Growing up on the banks of the Mississippi river, a mischievous boy named Tom Sawyer spends his days getting into one scrape after another. Tom’s constant cleverness, superstition, trickery, and daring make him a handful to raise, and his Aunt Polly declares that she has “never seen the beat of that boy!” Tom is essentially good-hearted, however, but when he is witness to a horrible crime, his courage and integrity are tested beyond anything he ever expected. A note to parents: The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is considered a children’s classic, but contains racial slurs which, although “acceptable” in the time and place of the story’s setting, will likely offend modern listeners.
