"Tom Sawyer Abroad" by Mark Twain is a continuation of the escapades of Tom Sawyer, a young boy searching for adventure when his fame begins to fade after his previous travels. Tom shares his restlessness with his friends Huck and Jim and proposes an adventure to distant lands in a balloon. The novel establishes a lighthearted and funny mood as Tom shares his big dreams with Huck's more down-to-earth skepticism. As their journey begins they witness events such as a fierce battle and camels in the vibrant desert, which sets the scene for the rest of their make-believe journey and further blurs the line between reality and imagination.
