Summary of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer
Tom Sawyer is a troublemaker. After Tom gets in trouble, he is ordered by Aunt Polly,
with whom he lives, to whitewash their fence. When his friends see him painting the
fence, Tom pretends that he loves the chore to make his friends jealous. They beg him to
let them help. This is a prime example of the type of trouble Tom Sawyer is always
getting up to.
Part of the novel is devoted to Tom's romance with Becky Thatcher, a new girl in town.
They like each other, but Becky is hurt when she finds out that Tom liked someone else
before her. Eventually, he takes the blame for a book she ruined, making her like him
again.
Tom is always getting into trouble, usually with his friend, Huckleberry Finn. Together
they sneak out to a graveyard at night, where they witness Injun Joe murder Dr.
