“Mark Twain has written a book which will not only charm elder readers . . . but will be of value to philosophers.” —Star Tribune

“A wonderful study of the boy-mind, which inhabits a world quite distinct from that in which he is bodily present with his elders, and in this lies its great charm and its universality, for boy-nature, however human nature varies, is the same everywhere.” —The Atlantic
