The best ways to describe Tom Sawyer´s character are that he is <em>amusing, cunning and mischievous.</em>

<u><em>Amusing </em></u>because he sometimes does funny things (“make me laugh”).

<u><em>Cunning </em></u>because he always comes up with something unexpected (“never plays them alike”) and he knows how far he can go (“He ´pears to know how long…”).

<u>Mischievous </u>because Tom always gets him annoyed ("...I get my dander up").
