Don't buy it!

I bought this for my 3rd grade son to introduce him to Mark Twain and the book is just about unreadable! It was torture! I love the idea of having the vocabulary words in a story, but they were distracting inserted in Mark Twain's already difficult style of writing. My son was very confused by the grammer that is used in Twain's writing. I think there must be a better intro to Twain for young kids.
