ADVENTURES OF TOM SAYWER By Mark Twain


The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, TOM SAWYER, Mark Twain Complete Works

Go on the many adventures with Tom Sawyer and his gang through a small town along the Mississippi River that has kids with a big personality for being brave. They go from running away to be a pirate to solving a murder. One night, Tom and one of his best friends Huckleberry Finn decide to go to the graveyard at half past nine. When they got there, they saw 3 people. Muff Potter, Dr. Robinson and fearsome Injun Joe-a murderer. They  plan to dig up a grave. Find out what happens next and discover they many more adventures that lie in the pages of The adventures of Tom Sawyer!

Tom Sawyer is in conflict with himself.
The struggle for Tom was he was a mischievous person and that gets him into trouble.

Tom Sawyer changes by realizing adventure doesn't have to be running away to a pirate island but it can be solving a mystery and helping the community.

Tom Sawyer reminds me of Jack and Annie from The Magic Tree House because they have a lot of adventures involving saving someone or something.

I rate this book *****

AROUND THE WORLD IN 80 DAYS By Jules Verne

Phileas Fogg makes a bet with his friends at the reform club that he can travel around the world in 80 days. He grabs his servant and heads off but runs into many problems along the way, for example Mr. Fix is trying to arrest Phileas Fogg because he thinks Fogg robbed a bank! Fix follows Fogg around everywhere trying to confirm his arrest.Things don't work out well for fix so can Fogg do it with all his other difficulties and win his money he bet back?

Phileas Fogg was in conflict with another person, Mr.Fix.

Phileas Fogg was in conflict with Fix because while Phileas was trying to get around the world, Fix was
trying to arrest him because he thought he robbed a bank, which he didn't.

Phileas Fogg changed because he was very fancy and had a lot of money but in the middle he ran out of money and was poor and didn't wear fancy clothes, once he got home and had won his bet and all his money he was wealthy again.

Phileas Fogg reminded me of myself because I have tried to accomplish something before, and I have done it before just like when Phileas accomplished his goal of getting around the world in 80 days.

I would give this book a **** rating.
