About

Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn live in a small town on the Mississippi River above St. Louis. Tom is raised by his Aunt Polly, with whom he lives together with his brother Sid. Huckleberry, known as Huck, is homeless and does not go to school—his father is an alcoholic and has been missing for some time, with many believing him to be dead. But Tom and Huck are friends—and will remain so, come what may.
