Huckleberry Finn

Did you read “The adventures of Tom Sawyer”? If you did, and liked that book, you should read “Huckleberry Finn” by Mark Twain.

This story is about a boy named Huck who lives with Widow Douglas. He doesn’t like to wear new clothes and be good. One day, Huck finds Pop’s footprints near the house. Pop wants money but Huck didn’t give it to him. So Pop locked him up in a hut. However, Huck escapes and meets Jim in an island. They meet people who claim themselves as a duck and a king. Then Jim gets caught so Huck goes to the Phelps’s house to free Jim. Huck meets Tom and they plan to free Jim but fails. They meet Aunt Polly who tells them the truth, so Huck gets to know that his Pop died and that Jim is a free man.

I can understand how Huck feels about clean clothes and good behaviors. He was free and wild in the woods so clean clothes and good behaviors can be quite a shock to Huck. I had a similar experience. When I started to go to school, everything was new and not satisfying. The main reason was that freedom allowed in my house wasn’t allowed at school. I think that Huck felt the same way as I did when I started school.

I would like to recommend this book to people who want to be free from something. After reading this book, they would get courage and give a try to be free. I think that ‘Huckleberry Finn’ is fun.
