Tom Sawyer and his band find adventures at every turn along the Mississippi River. Then one fateful day they witness a murder. Dangerous knowledge - and they swear never to reveal the secret. But what will happen when Tom is frighteningly trapped in a cave with Injun Joe? Mark Twain's thrilling children's take is illustrated by Robert Ingpen whose images stir the imagination. * Hatchard's Summer catalogue 2010 *
Ingpen's pencil and watercolour drawings are stunning and look as if they could have been done when Twain was alive. A perfect match for a timeless classic. * ABC Magazine 2010 *
