Tom & Huck Just Havin' Fun!

One of the 100 books on the American Library Association's of challenged books is The Adventures of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain. There are many issues in this book that could be up for debate among people such as parents. For example, there are inappropriate racial words and actions in the book expressed towards African Americans. This book, though controversial, is an exciting one. I've read this book a number of times and I've enjoyed it every time. This older novel is great for children to read now, after it was written, to remind and/or teach them of the times and people before them. It's a good time to read about different adventures by a daring little boy. There are many lessons to be learned from reading this book, such as not to take things for granted, and also there are consequences for your actions. In conclusion, I think everyone should read this book to see, personally how great it really is.
