The Prince and the Pauper" revolves around two men: one is the King of England; the other is the lowest of the commoners: a beggar, one day (due to complicated reasons), the two's positions change. The king becomes a vagabond, the beggar becomes the king. Mark Twain tells the tale of what these two beings experience in the expanse of three to four months. Through the experience, the king learns how it feels like to be subjugated by his own laws and the beggar learns how difficult it is to sustain an entire country. Anyways, the prime factor that made this novel great was its character development.
It really had me thinking about life morals and values. It kept me asking: What would it feel like to be put into another person's shoes? Does your perspective of that person change once you experience what they have experienced their entire life?
