The adventures of Tom Sawyer

The big fight

1 CE

Aunt Polly is calling Tom, but he doesn't show up. Until he hears it in the garden and goes to look for it. When he arrives, he sees Tom with scratches and asks what happened to him, but Tom doesn't want to tell him anything. After a while he admits that he had a fight with a rich kid from the village.

The punishment

Aunt Polly scolds him and punishes him by saying that he can't go to play on Saturday because he has to paint the fence.

A job well done

Saturday arrived and everyone went out to play, except Tom because he was grounded. When he was painting, a friend of his came by making fun of him. Tom kept calm, but began to challenge him saying that he would not be able to paint and in the end he convinced him to paint the fence for him, and also in exchange his friend Ben gave him an apple. He did the same with several other friends and together they finished painting it and Tom was allowed out to play.

On Sunday morning Tom and Cid got ready to go to Sunday school, but Tom didn't like going. After school Tom, Cid and Aunt Polly went to the church, and Tom wanted to make a joke so he brought a beetle and when the reverend started talking he put it on the ground, and instantly the church dog saw it and wanted to play with him. But the beetle bit his nose and he barked. With all the fuss the reverend got angry that no one was paying attention to him and Tom smirked at pulling this prank.
