Activity Overview
The novel is seen through the eyes of Huck Finn, who has contradicting views about slavery. For example, Huck struggles between assisting his friend Jim, a runaway slave, and breaking the law. Later on, Huck risks his own freedom to find Jim; Huck goes into town to rescue Jim after the Duke sells him for a small reward. When Tom Sawyer arrives, Huck confides in him, telling him about the adventure he and Jim have experienced down the river. Huck is pleasantly surprised when Tom agrees to help free Jim.
