My name is ... I'm ... years old and I study at a state secondary school. From the early age I've been fond of reading. When I was only five, my mum read or told me fairy-tales before going to bed. When I grew older, I started reading books myself. One of the recent books that I've read was "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer" by Mark Twain. Since then, my favourite fictional hero is Tom Sawyer. I admire the courage and inventiveness of this twelve-year old boy. He gets away nearly with everything, although he is often caught in trouble. He lives with his aunt Polly, his cousin Mary and his half-brother Sid. They don't get along well, because Sid is a seemingly positive hero, while Tom often misbehaves. He is rather careless and he likes showing off in front of other boys. His best friends are Huckleberry Finn and Joe Harper. In my opinion, this hero represents childhood in all forms. He can easily get in love with a girl. His first love was Amy Lawrence, but later he fell in love with his classmate Becky Thatcher. He can run away with friends to an island to enjoy freedom. Apart from aunt Polly, Tom has a distant aunt Sally Phelps, who lives considerably far, down the river Mississippi. Aunt Polly is rather stern, but she has a loving and caring nature. She does care about Tom and his behavior. She genuinely worries when the boys disappear. The next book that I'm going to read is “The Adventures if Huckleberry Finn” written by the same author. My mum says that my favourite literary hero, Tom Sawyer, appears in this book as well.
