Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
The circus has come to town, and Tom's dreaming of seeing the big top. So when his teacher announces that whoever wins the spelling bee will get a free ticket, Tom is even willing to study! But will he also cheat to get what he wants? A fun story about doing the right thing, even if it means giving up something you really want.
The new girl -- Tom and Becky -- The winner -- Doing the right thing.
A brief, simplified retelling of the episode in "Tom Sawyer" in which Tom cheats during the spelling bee, but later realizes he must make things right.
