Reflection
The book "The Adventures of Huckleberry FInn" by Mark Twain was an amazing book. It really got me interested and kept me wanting to read more. I also loved it because it took me to the 1800's so vividly. It made me feel like if I was witnessing the whole thing. I think that Mark Twain's goal with this book, is to show his readers that everyone is equal, and deserve a chance to be treated with respect. I also think that he was trying to show his readers the flaws in the society at the time, and still even now. Problems such as racism and unfair judgments. I think he was trying to let his society know what they were doing, and what needed to be fixed. Mark Twain did achieve his goals with me because it made me realize even more that everyone deserves the same chances in life, and that listening to what society may think is right at the time, really may not be.
The larger idea of this story is to not put anyone under you just by judging their appearance, because inside they might be a great person. Just like Mark Twain showed that Jim was when Huck started to get to know him more.
What I really enjoyed about this book was the writing. The way Mark Twain made Jim speak made it really realistic. If you compare Jim's tone and grammar and compare it to Huck's, you really see the difference. It helped you remember that this is how things were back then. Not right, and unfair.
