There are some characters in the story, including Tom, Becky, Ben, Aunt Polly and so on. Of course, Tom, the naughty but lovely boy is one of the main characters.
The story takes place one afternoon in a town. Tom is required to paint the 3-yard-long fence by Aunt Polly. It is such hard work that Tom actually is unwilling to complete it. Suddenly, he thinks of an idea. When his friend passes by, Tom pretends to enjoy painting the fence and it is great fun to do it. Therefore, his friend becomes interested and begs Tom for a try. Later on, more boys are tricked into painting the fence and even offer their food and toys. At last, the fence gets 3 coats of paint.
