The book which I like most is The Prince and the Pauper written by Mark Twain. Mark Twain is the pen name of Samuel Langhorne Clemens. The book was first published by James R. Osgood in 1881. The story revolves around two characters – a pauper Tom Canty and the Prince of Wales, Edward Tudor. The plot consists of the experiences of the two boys when they change their places. They change their roles when they realize that they are same in appearance. At last, though Tom Canty has the chance to be king and rule the country, he finds the real prince and lets him be the king. I like this book because it stands as a handbook of reality and justice.
