The Adventures of Tom Sawyer - A Musical: Book Five: Yarns 11, 12 & 13

One afternoon. One look across a yard. And the smartest boy in town hasn't a chance. Tom Sawyer has won his Saturday, and his pockets are full of treasure. Then he climbs a fence rail to show off for a crowd — and stops dead in the middle of his finest trick, because there is a girl standing in a garden who is not trying to be noticed at all. What follows is handsprings nobody asked for, a great stick-and-holler war won by a general whose mind is three fields away, a pansy tossed over a fence, and one soaked and ruined boy walking home happier than he has ever been in his life. Three more adventures from Mark Twain's beloved classic, retold for young readers in full-page paintings, with a hidden creature to find in every picture and real Missouri birds named in the back. Hear each story told aloud — and sung, in original folk ballads. A book to read, hear, and sing. The Americana RiverJet Reader Series · Ages 6–10 · Book Five of the series
