katymvt's review against another edition
3.0
Tom Sawyer, Detective was much better than Tom Sawyer Abroad. Tom Sawyer Abroad didn't make any sense, and I think it could have largely been saved by the sentence, "and then I woke up from my dream" at the end
Tom Sawyer, Detective was very Hardy Boys-esque. While also not overly realistic, it was a fun read, even if the ending wasn't exactly gasp-worthy. I'm assuming the target audience for these books was much younger than me, and for that age group, and especially at a time where there was much less tecnology, I'm sure they were absolutely delightful.
