Set in 1547, this historical fiction novel explores the lives of two identical boys: Tom Canty, a poor pauper living with an abusive father, and Prince Edward, the son of King Henry VIII. Their chance encounter leads to a life-altering switch, allowing each to experience the other's world. Through their adventures, the story delves into themes of social class, identity, and the stark contrasts between wealth and poverty in Tudor England. Mark Twain's narrative combines humor with poignant social commentary.
