Honestly I just wanted to take a red pen to the whole book and correct the grammer used. Even though Mark Twain intentionaly wrote the book that way..still it bothered me. The ending was dissapointing. I expected to read more about Huck than going back to Toms childish ways.
I loved that we see this tale through the eyes of a young boy, complete with his speach style and outlook on the world. A good book that I would recomend to anyone interested in US history of the period, coming of age stories, or just adventure mixed with wit and humor.
A classic, what more can I say?
I'm in agreement with Michelle F. Read banned books! This is a classic that has been enjoyed by generations.

'Cordially hated and dreaded by all the mothers of the town because he was idle, and lawless, vulgar, and bad - and because all their children admired him so', Huckleberry Finn, the fourteen-year-old son of the town drunkard, joins runaway slave Jim on an exciting journey down the mighty Mississippi River on a raft.

A classic. A book that should be read by every American.
my book has a coffee stain on the first few pages but other than that perfect.
