This adventure tale of excitement and suspense is delightfully sprinkled
with homespun humor. Alive with colorful characters and sparkling dialogue,
Huck, a clever, lovable boy, is baffled by the greed, hypocrisy, and absurdity
of society. His conscience troubles him about what is wrong, what is right
during his long journey down the Mississippi, a journey in which he “grows
up.”
