The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (Bantam Classics) [Paperback] 汤姆索维亚历险记 Mark Twain (Author), Alfred Kazin (Afterword) Product Details Paperback: 224 pages Publisher: Bantam Classics (January 1, 1995) Language: English ISBN-10: 0553211285 ISBN-13: 978-0553211283 Product Dimensions: 4.2 x 0.5 x 7 inches Book De*ion Sparkling with mischief, jumping with youthful adventure, Mark Twain's Tom Sawyer is one of the most splendid re-creations of childhood in all of literature.
