2nd Tuesday Book Discussion Group

Selections for 2013

The group meets @ the Library, 10 am on the 2nd Tuesday of each month unless otherwise noted.  Everyone welcome to attend.

June 11   

Adventures of Tom Sawyer“The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, like many of Mark Twain’s other works, contains a good deal of social commentary. But, at heart, the novel is a boy’s story. Indeed, Mark Twain himself calls the book “a history of a boy.” He also states that the characters and plot are based on real people and events in his own boyhood. The resulting tale is as lively as you could imagine.

Tom Sawyer is full of mischief. The main character, Tom, constantly searches for new adventures, new tricks to play, or new ways to break the rules without getting into trouble.”  http://classiclit.about.com
