Why Is Huck Finn Good

In The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, By Mark Twain, there are many characters some good and some bad. Out of all the characters from Huck Finn and Jim to Pap and the Kings my favorite character is Huck Finn. Huck Finn is a good kid who tries to do the right thing.

Another aspect of Hucks kindness in his heart is when the Duke and the King
