How Did Huckleberry Finn Change

The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn isn't just about an ordinary boy but a young boy with a big imagination. Huckleberry Finn also known as Huck, lives with Widow Douglas because it seem to be unfit for him to live with his father, Pap. Once a new judge arrives in the town he orders Huck to go and live with his father once again. With Huck's huge imagination he decided to set up a scene as where he got "murdered". By doing this he got to be set free from living with his father because everyone thought he was dead. Since he was a just a young boy moving from Widow Douglas to Pap to living on his own Huck's personality definitely changed throughout the story and he also learns great life lessons while sailing on the Mississippi River.

Widow Douglas

Huckleberry’s mother passed away when he was little. His father was known as the town drunk and got very angry when he was drunk. While living with Widow Douglas, Huck went to school.

Once, the boys stayed at Aunt Sally’s she thought the Huck was Tom and that Tom was Sid. It got complicated once Tom’s mother got there to tell Aunt Sally who the boys really are.
