Twain's social satire about the young Prince Edward condemns the power of the monarchy, unjust laws, and religious intolerance. When Edward switches lives with Tom, a peasant boy, the prince quickly learns that social class, like so much of life, is determined by chance and random circumstance, while the peasant boy soon realizes that being a monarch has its own difficulties. Your classes will find much to relate to in this classic novel.
