Description
"Tom Sawyer Abroad" by Mark Twain is a novel published in 1894. Tom Sawyer, Huckleberry Finn, and Jim accidentally stow away on a futuristic hot air balloon bound for Europe. After the ship's owner falls overboard during a storm, the trio finds themselves sailing solo across uncharted skies. Their journey takes an unexpected turn toward Africa, where they encounter lions, robbers, and ancient wonders like the Pyramids and Sphinx in this parody of Jules Verne-style adventure tales.
