This delightful and (in its way) almost obscure Tom Sawyer story picks up in the aftermath of Tom and Huck's triumphal return from the pages of Huckleberry Finn: Tom, always looking for trouble, finds it when he sets out to become Hannibal's First Traveler. Tom, Huck, and Jim find themselves kidnapped by a mad inventor, sailing cross the Atlantic and into Arabian adventure on a hot-air balloon -- and that's only the beginning! Highly recommended; like all of Twain, a pleasure to read.

人生的风景，说到最后，是心灵的风景。时间走远。消逝在月色的尽头。不因时间而遗憾。不因月圆而伤感。不因花开而孤单。不因花败而悲怨。人生哪能尽如人意。只求无愧于心。使人成熟的不是岁月，而是你的经历。当百味尝遍，自然看透；看透世态，看淡世事。生活是一本精深的书，别人的注释代替不了自己的理解。趁年轻，要走得更远，看到别处的新天新地，感受别处的精彩纷呈，然后有所发现，有所创造。有些理想曾为我们引过道路，并不断给我新的勇气以欣然面对人生，那些理想就是：真、善、美。

JANET [She comes forward. She holds forth her hands with a half- appealing, half-commanding gesture. She almost seems inspired.] Would it not be so much better if, in this first political contest between man and woman, the opponents were two people honouring one another, loving one another? Would it not show to all the world that man and woman may meet--contend in public life without anger, without scorn?

Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There (1871) is a work of children's literature by Lewis Carroll (Charles Lutwidge Dodgson). It is the sequel to Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (1865). The themes and settings of Through the Looking-Glass make it a kind of mirror image of Wonderland: the first book begins outdoors, in the warm month of May (May 4), uses frequent changes in size as a plot device, and draws on the imagery of playing cards; the second opens indoors on a snowy, wintry night exactly six months later, on November 4 (the day before Guy Fawkes Night), uses frequent changes in time and spatial directions as a plot device, and draws on the imagery of chess. In it, there are many mirror themes, including opposites, time running backwards, and so on.

EVERY art and every inquiry, and similarly every action and pursuit,  is thought to aim at some good; and for this reason the good has  rightly been declared to be that at which all things aim. But a  certain difference is found among ends; some are activities, others  are products apart from the activities that produce them.
