The major plot points of Tom Sawyer are covered, but Twain’s writing style is severely eroded in this abridged version. Some of the heart and soul of the original tale are lost as a result. Still, there are bits of humor, drama, and suspense which make it an acceptable edition for reluctant readers. The illustrations are also well done.
