The Prince and the Pauper

Set during the Tudor era, the narrative follows young Prince Edward and pauper Tom Canty, who switch places after realizing they resemble each other. This role reversal allows Edward to experience the harsh realities of common life, while Tom enjoys the luxuries of royalty. Mark Twain's work serves as both a comedic adventure and a poignant social commentary on the superficial judgments based on appearance. The edition features premium acid-free paper and illustrations by Franklin Booth, enhancing its appeal.
