The Prince and the Pauper
When a chance encounter reveals their uncanny resemblance, young Edward, the crown prince of England, and Tom, a poor commoner, embark on a daring exchange of identities. What begins as a playful experiment quickly spirals into a high-stakes adventure as each boy becomes trapped in the other's world. In the glittering halls of royalty and the gritty streets of London, both must navigate unexpected dangers, mistaken identities, and life-changing discoveries.--CreatorsMark Twain, author Thomas W.
