About the author

Mark Twain

Summary

Chafed by the "sivilized" restrictions of his foster home, and weary of his
drunkard father's brutality, 14 year-old Huck Finn fakes his own death and sets
off on a raft down the Mississippi River. He is soon joined by Jim, an escaped
slave. Together, they experience a series of rollicking adventures that have
amused readers, young and old, for over a century. The fugitives become close
friends as they weather storms together aboard the raft and spend idyllic days
swimming, frying catfish suppers, and enjoying their independence.
