A beggar boy who dreams of having a luxurious life. A prince who desires to see the outside. On one faithful day, they meet and exchange clothing. There they will experience their new world like never before. They will never return to their normal life the same again.

The beginning was tedious, but like many interesting books, the progression becomes very intense. There were themes such as loyalty, family and giving to those who were done injustice. These were probably the times of Mark Twain. I think it was to tell society that sometimes in order to go forward, the roles of the people both in the higher class and lower class needs to switch in order to see the world in a different perspective. When they come back, they will have more better insight on what they should do in the world.
