Dutch De Lotgevallen van Tom Sawyer Wikipedia page about this book: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Adventures_of_Tom_Sawyer Wikipedia page about this book: https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_lotgevallen_van_Tom_Sawyer Produced by Jeroen Hellingman and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net/ "De Lotgevallen van Tom Sawyer" by Mark Twain is a novel written in the mid-19th century. The book centers around the adventurous life of a young boy named Tom Sawyer, exploring themes of childhood mischief, freedom, and societal expectations in a small American town along the Mississippi River. The opening of the story introduces us to Tom Sawyer and his Aunt Polly, who is searching for him after noticing his absence. Tom is hiding in the pantry, having indulged in jelly and evading punishment. Their interactions highlight Tom's mischievous nature and the dynamic of his relationship with his aunt, who struggles to discipline him while grappling with her affection for her late sister’s son. This sets up a playful and conflictual tone, with hints of Tom's rebellion against authority. As Tom navigates throughout his day, we see glimpses of his relationships with other characters, such as Sid, his staid younger brother, and Jim, the mischievous black servant, providing a foundation for the unfolding adventures that will characterize Tom's life in the novel.
