First Assignment for Huck Finn

1. You don't know me, without you have read a book by the name of "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer," but that ain't no matter.

I think the first sentence shows that the book is going to be contrary to previous beliefs. It's saying that if you have read "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer", this book will explain things differently. I also think it shows that this character who is speaking could be untrustworthy. I believe this because he is saying something totally different from what his friend previously said. This means that one of them is lying, or bending the truth.



2. The author ends chapter one by telling us that Huckleberry Finn snuck out of his house. This shows that he is a very sneaky character. This backs up my idea that he could be lying/bending the truth. In chapter two, he is continuing to be mischievous by sneaking out with a group of bad kids, including Tom Sawyer, to go do bad things. Chapter one was introducing Huckleberry Finn and showing what his life would be like without all the trouble caused by his friends.



3. I really think I am going to like this book because I enjoy reading stories with the main character being the same age as me. This helps me relate to what's going on. Also I think I am going to like it because I like adventure stories and everyone I know that has read it says it is one of the greatest books they have ever read.
