THE ADVENTURES OF TOM SAWYER

In an expressive voice reminiscent of Hal Holbrook, Dick Hill alternately whispers, shouts and otherwise tells the familiar tales of one of America's favorite young heroes. Tom's escapades are brought to life by Hill's vocally differentiated characters and his ability to heighten interest through pauses and exaggeration. The echoey special effects in the cave sequences add spooky realism. The attractive, eye-catching cover depicts the fence-painting episode in color. A wise selection for the library needing a new Mark Twain classic. C.J.M. ©AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: MAR 93]
