Pickpick

This #picturebook #biography of #MarkTwain does a good job of showing how his childhood experiences influenced his work. The watercolor illustrations by writer #DonBrown are also quite charming. There‘s a short author‘s note with more info, and a brief bibliography.

This #picturebook biography of #MarkTwain does not shy away from the slavery issue. I also learned that little Sam Clemens was saved from drowning by an enslaved woman. #DonBrown

Ruthiella Oh, I wonder if that‘s partially where Octavia Butler got the idea for 3y

I don't have any books by Mark Twain but I read them when I was at my first school. I remembered the story of Tom Sawyer.

I took the Liberty Square Riverboat ride around Tom Sawyer Island, so I still got to see the fort and the half white-washed painted fence.

Okay, anyone not interested in stupid videos just scroll on by. But if you‘re like me and stuff like this makes you laugh, then follow the link and watch. I laughed so hard! 😂 Also, one guy uses authors names as expletives. Enjoy! 🤣🤣🤣

“...and it was getting closer and closer onto barefoot time every day; and next it would be marble time, and next mumblety peg, and next tops and hoops, and next kites, and then right away it would be summer and going in a-swimming.” #BarefootTime

Mark Twain: people either love him or hate him. I'm not sure where I stand, but I bought this lovely leather bound edition containing 5 novels while visiting one of the museums in Hannibal, MO last year. I believe I posted a pic of the cover then, but as I prepare to start reading, I wanted to share the beautiful sketch found on the inside of the cover. #readtheclassics #marktwain #tomsawyer #riverlife #mississippiriver

#bellesbookishnewyear19 Day 24: #greenbook .
My mom read Tom Sawyer aloud to us kids when we were young and to be honest I loved it.
I always get a sentimental feeling when I think of those days. .

What book makes you all mushy inside?
