10/4/2007 Cindy Lovell said: Brilliance! A favorite of mine, and a favorite of gifted students. When you read it, you might think you're watching the Daily Show or the Colbert Report. Twain wrote this one "with a pen warmed up in hell." There are great lesson plans on the Mark Twain Museum website to go with this book.
