review 1: Written by a Colorado author - it's a prequel to Tom Sawyer with a great female protagonist dealing with the death of her brother (whose nickname was Huckleberry), moving to a new town, making new friends, and meeting the steamboat pilot, Sam Clemens who is in town for a few days while his boat is repaired. Very funny quotes, superstitions, adventures, and insights into how we all deal with the sorrow of death differently.
review 2: Using the character Tom Sawyer and his Mississippi River setting, author Jessica Lawson creates a spunky fearless heroine, Becky Thatcher. Becky enjoys mischievous adventures, which often include Tom and his brother Sid. She has a hunger for excitement and a knack for sniffing trouble and getting right into it. This classic suspens... moreeful tale is too good to miss, hopefully Becky will have more adventures soon. less
