One of Mark Twain's most beloved and enduring works-a vivid celebration of childhood, imagination, and adventure along the banks of the Mississippi River.
Who could forget the pranks, the adventures, and the sheer fun of Tom Sawyer? From Tom's sly trickery with the whitewashed fence-when he cleverly manipulates everyone so they happily do his work for him-to his and Becky Thatcher's calamities in Bat Cave, the enjoyment just never ends. It's a book every child should read at least once.
The illustrations for this series were created by Scott McKowen, who, with his wife Christina Poddubiuk, operates Punch & Judy Inc., a company specializing in design and illustration for theater and performing arts. Their projects often involve research into the visual aspects of historical settings and characters. Christina is a theater set and costume designer and contributed advice on the period clothing for the illustrations.
Scott created these drawings in scratchboard an engraving medium which evokes the look of popular art from the period of these stories. Scratchboard is an illustration board with a specifically prepared surface of hard white chalk. A thin layer of black ink is rolled over the surface, and lines are drawn by hand with a sharp knife by scraping through the ink layer to expose the white surface underneath. The finished drawings are then scanned and the color is added digitally.
