A chance for a new generation of readers to fall in love with this classic story of orphans and swindlers. Paper Moon is the tale of conman 'Long Boy' and Addie Pray, his eleven-year-old sidekick.

Depression-era pockets can be surprisingly deep, but when Addie and 'Long Boy' come up with a new scheme, they reckon they won't be picking wallets for much longer...
