give the character sketch Tom swyer

Tom is lovable and infuriating a t the same time. He is a typical little boy who loves adventure, but hates church, school, and chores.

His imagination often gets him into trouble because he follows his impulses. He created a huge debacle in church when the pinch-bug he was playing with wreaked havoc on the sermon. Some of his adventures being the time he ran away to play pirates on the sandbar of the Mississippi River and hanging out in the cemetery with Huck at midnight.

Tom has a huge crush on Becky and will get into trouble just so he can sit by her.Tom is not adept at formal education, yet he is by no means stupid. He bends rules but understands the difference between right and wrong when it counts. This is evident in how he helps Becky when she is in trouble with the schoolmaster.

Tom is a memorable character whose mischievous tendencies do not detract from his likability.
