Throughout The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, Tom has matured rapidly, and has changed from a young selfish boy to a caring, noble, and trustworthy young man. Near the beginning of the book when he is white washing his aunt's fence he proves to be a little self centered boy. When he is asked to come up to tell what he knows about the death of the character Dr. Robinson he shows how he has matured throughout the book. At the end of the book while he is talking to his friend and comrade Huck Finn he shows how he has matured and become more responsible throughout his adventures.
When his aunt tells him to go white wash the fence Tom goes out to do it. Before he starts whitewashing he feels self pity but starts the large task. When he sees some other boys walking by he convinces them that whitewashing a fence is not something a boy gets to do every day and that it was a special privilege. Well that got them and they begged him to let them paint the big fence, so Tom thought of something even more selfish and told them they would have to trade something for the chore. Tom got rich with marbles and many other things a boy was fascinated with. later when his aunt saw it he was rewarded by her for the work that the other boys did. Even though he showed that he was selfish in this part of the story he does mature during the rest of the amazing book.
