He didnt forget to ask something from each one of them. He even asked Jim and Mary Jackson to let him give the party at their house! They agreed. The party was a big success.

Tom lives with his auntPolly in a quiet street of St Petersburg, Missouri. Hes a lively and clever young boy, and he finds himself in many exciting adventures(探险). He runs away with his two friends, Huck Finn and Joe, to an island in the middle of the Mississippi River for several days. My favourite scene(场景) in the book is when everyone thinks Tom is dead. He decides to go to his own funeral(葬礼). He hides and watches for a time, and then suddenly he appears(出现). Everyone is surprised to see him, but theyre also pleased to see him alive. Tom is the hero of the story, but there are other important characters. Huck is an outsider and everyone is afraid of him. Becky is pretty with fair hair, Joe is Toms best friend, and Injun Joe is the bad man in the story. The theme of the story is about childrens growing up. It describes how strangers are seen in small towns of America. Finally, it talks about freedom, social rules and how people are punished for bad behaviour(行为). Mark Twain wrote the story in 1876. but its still read and loved by people all over the world today. Although its only a story, Mark Twain wrote it in the everyday English of the southern states(州) of America m the 19th century, so it sounds very real Today its thought to be one of the greatest books in Amerian literature(文学).
