Tom Sawyer's Way Of Life

I know when I am using this template you can't see the title, bt this post is called "Tom Sawyer's Way Of Life". I am going to write my opinion on the events in CHapter Five. This is one of my favorite chapters of any book I have ever read because it relates Tom's attitude the best. The way he set loose a beetle with care and thought to what it would do really sparked my interest in this part of the book.

I also liked how when he saw Becky Thatcher he wrote, so directly, "I love you" onto his chalkboard. This shows that he is not a really shy person. And when Becky simply responded with an off-hand comment like "I wish I could draw," I learned that that sort of thing wasn't a really big deal with kids that lived back then and that were that age.

When Tom saw Huckleberry Finn for the first time in this book, I liked how their correspondence was "strictly business." It added some sort of, oh I don't know how to explain it, dimension, humor, pretending-to-be-grown-up actions, to the book. I really don't knwo how to say it. It was just funner to read that part becuase it was simply funny how they are pretending to be so involved and interested and like the business they are dealing with is very serious.

That wasn't a very good post. Sorry if it is boring anyone. :o)
