The Prince and the Pauper
About This Novel
This book is the representative work of American writer Mark Twain. This article describes that the prince Edward and the pauper Tom changed places with each other by an unexpected chance. The prince became a pauper and the pauper became a prince. Pauper Tom wears the prince's clothes and enjoys all the glory and wealth in the palace, and becomes the new king of England. But the real prince Edward wandered around and had to endure poverty and the bullying and ridicule of beggars. With the help of the good man Holden, Prince Edward went through many disasters, corrected his bad habits, and finally returned to the palace. Under the condemnation of his conscience, Pauper Tom returned the throne that did not belong to him to the real prince. After that, Edward became a benevolent monarch and lived a happy life with his people. When Mark Twain first published this work, he wrote on the cover: "To Susie and Clara, Father." It can be seen that this is a book written by a father to give to his beloved daughters.
