good one

Mark Twain's short stories are an American treasure. What I like about Mark Twain is that he is very good at capturing the unique dialect of the individuals within his stories. He was an acute observer of human nature -- as any great story teller is -- and his works are timeless. Every American should read Mark Twain.

Fantastic

As always, Mark Twain's stories are entertaining and my nephew thinks so, too. I got this for him for Christmas and he loves it. Is almost finished reading it now.
