About the Book The Prince and the Pauper
Set in 16th-century England, The Prince and the Pauper by Mark Twain delves into themes of identity, social class, and justice. It follows two boys, Edward Tudor, the Prince of Wales, and Tom Canty, a poor boy from London, who are born on the same day but lead vastly different lives.
When the boys meet and decide to switch places out of curiosity, Edward faces the harsh realities of common life, while Tom struggles with the complexities of royalty. Their adventures underscore the stark contrasts between the lives of the rich and the poor, highlighting the injustices faced by those in lower social classes.
Through their experiences, both boys learn important lessons about empathy, fairness, and the true essence of nobility. The novel’s satirical tone and engaging narrative make it a timeless classic that continues to resonate with readers.

Meanwhile, this page is active so you can order books; it just isn't quite as informative or graphically appealing as the new page will be. Thanks for understanding! :-)
