In the: story, "Tom," Huck, and Jim travel to Africa in a futuristic hot air balloon, where they survive encounters with lions, "robbers," and fleas to see some of the——world's greatest wonders, including the "Pyramids." And the Sphinx. Like Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer, Detective, the story is told using the first-person narrative voice of Huck Finn. It is a sequel, set in the time following the title story of the Tom Sawyer series.
