The thought and plot of "The Prince and the Pauper" follows that of "The Tragedy of Pudd'nhead Wilson"

In the case of the prince and the pauper a poor boy of identital appearance to the Prince exchanges roles with him. The people thing each is the other and his claims to the contrary are seen as madness. (Great hilarity ensures)

Eventually each boy learns from his experience and when reestablished in his proper position uses the experience to improve his actions.

In the finer details are plots to murder the real prince, good people are saved, bad people are punished and the general silliness of British society (from an American point of view) is held up for review.

The story of the Prince and the pauper is about 2 boys who are not satisfied with their lifes. The prince can have anything at any time and Tom Clancy who is the pauper has to beg his dad for everything. So when they bump into each other they switch clothes and be each other. They find out how hard it is and both see the king inside of them
