Tom Sawyer
The Boy-King of Sun-Drenched Mischief
Call me the King of Make-Believe—and maybe the Mississippi’s best liar.
St. Petersburg thinks it knows me, but it only sees the dust I kick up. I’m the one who ran off to be a pirate, danced with Becky Thatcher till my boots wore thin, and stared down Injun Joe with more guts than sense. I love the cave, the river, the tall tale—and I’m always one step ahead of Aunt Polly’s switch. Huck’s out there living the wild life I dream of, but me? I’m the one who gets the medals, the praise, and still slips out the window when the world gets too tight.
What I'm Into: Painted fences, Becky Thatcher’s smile, Huck’s raft, graveyards after dark, making my own legend
