Here is one of the great American novels, illustrated by one of this country's most distinguished artists.

Readers will enjoy the antics of that irrepressible boy-hero, Tom, who lies to his Aunt Polly and still is forgiven, wins the heart of Becky Thatcher by getting whipped at school, gets out of whitewashing a fence by tricking his friends into doing it, and has dangerous adventures with his sidekick Huckleberry Finn but emerges unscathed.

Barry Moser's seventeen unforgettable watercolors bring Mark Twain's beloved novel to life in this deluxe gift edition that readers will want to return to again and again.
