All-Action Classics No. 2: Tom Sawyer

With its lively, fun narrative and irrepressible hero, Tom Sawyer is tailor-made for the graphic novel form. Just imagine such classic moments as Tom and Becky in the bat-filled cave or the hilarious fence-painting incident captured in bright and atmospheric images. Author Tim Mucci and artist Rad Sechrist, one of the most talented up-and-coming comics illustrators today, have endowed each character with personality and each scene with movement and energy. Every frame is filled with such detail-from the buildings to the carefully created backgrounds-that readers will feel as if they could step right into Twain's wonderful world.
