Book excerpt: The Prince and the Pauper tells the tale of two boys who are identical in appearance: Tom Canty, a pauper who lives with his abusive father, and Prince Edward, son of King Henry VIII. Tom Canty (youngest son of a family living with the dregs of society in Offal Court off Pudding Lane in London) has always aspired to a better life, encouraged by the local priest (who has taught him to read and write). Loitering around the palace gates one day, he sees a prince (the Prince of Wales – Edward VI). Tom is nearly caught and beaten by the Royal Guards; however, Edward stops them and invites Tom into his palace chamber. There the two boys get to know one another, fascinated by each other's life and their uncanny resemblance. They decide to switch clothes “temporarily”. Edward leaves in a hurry before the boys are caught at their game. Soon Prince Edward is trying to escape the brutality of Tom's abusive drunken father. Tom, posing as the prince, tries to cope with court customs and manners.

He has an abusive father and grandmother, a kind mother and sisters, and a pretty sad life. But he has a dream: one day, he wants to meet a real-life prince.After dreaming about living in the lap of luxury, Tom makes his way to Westminster Palace one day. When he gets a little too close to the gate, a guard attacks him. Lucky for Tom, this attracts the attention of the prince, who rebukes the guard and lets our little pauper into the palace. It's his dream come true.Surprisingly enough, the two little boys hit it off. Turns out they both have pretty terrible fathers, so we guess that's something to bond over. Eventually Tom gets to tell the prince about his life, and the prince thinks this sounds amazing. You know what's coming next: they decide to swap lives, just for a little while.But right in the middle of all of this, the prince storms out, determined to discipline the guard who bruised Tom. What he wasn't expecting was to be mistaken for Tom and kicked out of the palace because no one could recognize him without his fancy clothes. Now he's just another poor person on the street.The prince tries to tell everyone he comes across what happened to him, but it doesn't work; everyone just thinks he's crazy. Meanwhile, Tom starts to get a little fidgety at the palace. The prince has been gone for a pretty long time, and Tom's worried about getting caught. He tries to turn himself in, but everyone just assumes that he's crazy, too. So the prince's dad, King Henry VIII, orders that no one talk about his son's mental illness. Looks like Tom is going to be the new Prince of England.

Book excerpt: The Prince and the Pauper, Part 2.: Large Print By Mark Twain Tom Canty, left alone in the prince's cabinet, made good use of his opportunity. He turned himself this way and that before the great mirror, admiring his finery; then walked away, imitating the prince's high-bred carriage, and still observing results in the glass. Next he drew the beautiful sword, and bowed, kissing the blade, and laying it across his breast, as he had seen a noble knight do, by way of salute to the lieutenant of the Tower, five or six weeks before, when delivering the great lords of Norfolk and Surrey into his hands for captivity. Tom played with the jewelled dagger that hung upon his thigh; he examined the costly and exquisite ornaments of the room; he tried each of the sumptuous chairs, and thought how proud he would be if the Offal Court herd could only peep in and see him in his grandeur. He wondered if they would believe the marvellous tale he should tell when he got home, or if they would shake their heads, and say his overtaxed imagination had at last upset his reason. At the end of half an hour it suddenly occurred to him that the prince was gone a long time; then right away he began to feel lonely; very soon he fell to listening and longing, and ceased to toy with the pretty things about him; he grew uneasy, then restless, then distressed. Suppose some one should come, and catch him in the prince's clothes, and the prince not there to explain. Might they not hang him at once, and inquire into his case afterward? He had heard that the great were prompt about small matters. His fear rose higher and higher; and trembling he softly opened the door to the antechamber, resolved to fly and seek the prince, and, through him, protection and release. Six gorgeous gentlemen-servants and two young pages of high degree, clothed like butterflies, sprang to their feet and bowed low before him. He stepped quickly back and shut the door.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The youngest son of a poor family, Tom Canty lives in the relatively poor area of London known as Offal Court. Tom has always known that he was made for better things, and aspires to a more well-to-do lifestyle. The local parish priest is very encouraging to him, and teaches him to read and write. Tom spends alot of time hanging around the gates of the palace, eventually this pays off; he meets Edward Tudor, Prince of Wales. This is seen as somewhat of a threat to the Prince's safety by his guards, who want to whisk him off and beat him for his insolence, but Edward speaks up for Tom and asks him to accompany him into the palace chamber. The two boys begin to strike up a friendship; despite their different stations in life, and their wildly divergent upbringings, what they have in common is that they are two young boys of the same age who happen to look very similar to each other. They are both fascinated by the other's life. The wildest coincidence is that they share the same birthday. One thing leads to another and they decide to switch places for the day.The Prince goes outside dressed like Tom. He is carrying an important document with him. The guards don't recognize him and they drive him as far as the outer walls of the palace. When he is dropped off he makes his own way to Tom's family's home. It is a brutal experience; Tom's father is an alcoholic and extremely abusive. He manages to escape from him and he meets a soldier, nobleman Miles Hendon, who is returning from war. Miles doesn't believe a word of the boy's story about being a prince disguised as a poor boy, but he likes the boy and he decides to humor him by pretending that he believes what he is saying. He becomes his wing man, and protector.In the middle of the boys' identity switch, news arrives that King Henry VIII has died, which means that Prince Edward is now King of England. Tom is disguised as Edward and struggling to get used to the way in which the Court works, and with its customs. Because he does not seem to know what is what, everyone believes him to have some kind of illness that causes loss of memory. They are worried that he will eventually go mad. They ask him over and over again about the Great Seal of England but he remembers nothing about it, or where it is. They are slightly placated when Tom is asked to view judgement proceedings and makes some very sound observations. He cannot be that mad if he still has this much common sense.
