Independent Reading:The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn

Bibliography:

Author’s Last Name, First Name. Book’s Title. City of         Publication: Publisher, Year of Publication. Twain,Mark.The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.        New York:The Modern Library,1993        Page count:433  Finn is the thirteen-year-old son of the local drunk of St. Petersburg, Missouri, a town on the Mississippi River.He's forced to survive on his own intelligence and always a outcast.Also,Huck is thoughtful willing to come to his own conclusion about important matters. Tom Sawyer is Huck's friend is the leading character of Tom Sawyer,the novel to which Huckleberry Finn is the ostensibly sequel.In Huckleberry Finn,Tom is an imaganitive ,dominating, and given to wild plans taken from the plots of adventure novels, Tom is everything Finn is not. Pap is Finn's father he's the town's drunk adn ne'er-do-well.The illiterate Pap disapproves of Huck’s education and beats him frequently. Pap represents the  debasement of white societyadn the failure of family structures in the novel.Last of all,this story is really weird to me but,now it's start to make sense to me also.These three chacracter were the ones that stood out the most to me in this book so far.  1. Bring your book and have a book discussion with Mrs. Hamilton or record a discussion with others reading your book and Mrs. Hamilton. Interviews typically take 10-15 minutes and need to be scheduled in advance.
