Read by Joe Reeder

Step into the cobbled streets of 16th-century London in The Prince and the Pauper, Mark Twain's classic tale of mistaken identity, compassion, and the contrast between privilege and poverty. When two boys-Tom Canty, born in the slums of Offal Court, and Edward Tudor, heir to the English throne-meet and discover their uncanny resemblance, they impulsively swap and lives. What begins as a game leads to a life-altering adventure as each must navigate a world utterly foreign to them. Through hardship and revelation, they gain a deeper understanding of justice, dignity, and humanity. This abridged edition, narrated with heartfelt nuance by Joe Reeder, brings Twain's sharp wit and deep empathy to new and seasoned listeners alike. A timeless reflection on class and character, this story speaks just as powerfully today as it did over a century ago
