Written by Mark Twain & illustrated by C.F. Payne [Ohio]

In his 1876 semi-autobiographical account of life in a small Missouri town, Mark Twain assembled a cast of characters so memorable that they became imprinted on American culture for all time. Illustrator C.F. Payne breathes new life into the impish Tom, overbearing Aunt Polly, the "idle and lawless" Huckleberry Finn, and all the other residents of fictional St. Petersburg in Twain's most popular and widely read novel. 296 pages

"Tom, Becky, Aunt Polly, and the other residents of St. Petersburg, MO, come to vivid life through Payne's exuberant artwork in this handsome reprint edition of the classic story. Finely detailed pencil drawings, stunning watercolors, and mixed-media compositions depict playful, Norman Rockwell-esque portraits, Americana, and thoughtful visualizations of Twain's iconic scenes." -School Library Journal (Ages 8+)
