The Adventures Of Tom Sawyer The Adventures of Tom Sawyer “Boys will be boys,” is a quote that best describes Tom Sawyer, in Mark Twain’s The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. Tom is the typical American boy. He is always getting into something. Throughout the novel Tom matures into a young man. Tom was always a mischievous boy but he had a good heart. During a child’s adolescence he can mature from being a menace to a respectable man in society. Tom Sawyer was very immature at the beginning of the novel, but matured throughout his adventures. When Tom was in trouble and had to white wash his Aunt Polly’s fence, he used reverse psychology on his friends to make them want to do his work for him. Tom did not want to do the work, so he found a way to get someone to do it for him. This shows that he is smart, but that he is also very manipulative. Tom had an idol in one of his peers, Huckleberry Finn. Huck did whatever he wanted, whenever he wanted.
