The Prince and the Pauper: A Tale for Young People of All Ages

Mistaken identity! Subterfuge! Plots and counter plots! Does this sound like the latest murder-mystery novel? Well, pull up a chair and immerse yourself in one of the best childhood fantasy novels ever written. Mark Twain wrote The Prince and the Pauper and dedicated it to his two daughters, Clara and Susie. In a departure from his usual style, Twain weaves a delightful story of the prince who wants to see something of the world, and the pauper who wants to escape from the cruelty of his world. This DSI edition is lavishly illustrated with over 192 pen-and-ink drawings. This 1885 edition has been reformatted to reflect the look and feel of the original CL Webster book.
