* CreatorBacklash: Twain wasn't very fond of the book and came to think of Tom Sawyer as the exemplar of everything that's shallow and stunted in the American spirit. His disgust found its way into ''Literature/HuckleberryFinn, in which Tom comes off as more of a thoughtless {{Jerkass}} than a mischievous scamp. The frequently cash-strapped Twain did, however, work his most famous character into [[MoneyDearBoy two more books afterwards.]]

* MagnumOpusDissonance: ''Tom Sawyer'' (and ''Huckleberry Finn'') are fine children's books, but they make Twain seem like an average, somewhat boring to adults children's author. That's because they were very early works of his. Most of his later works are absolutely hilarious short stories aimed at an older audience, and they go largely unknown (at least outside of the United States) because everyone associates Tom Sawyer with him.
