The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, authorized by Mark Twain was a great novel in my opinion. This book in particular and as a whole contains and teaches many lessons and themes for the reader(s). Huckfinn taught lessons on slavery and sacrifice, which stood out most to me in the novel. Two of the main characters, Huckleberry and Jim had a rather unique, genuine friendship. Huckleberry sacrificed a lot to help Jim. In some instances, He even lied for Jim in order to keep him safe. In the time period of the novel, slavery was a prominent thing. It was also rather audacious for a white male to become close with a black slave. Jim and Huck had a very priceless bond, they taught each other and also learned from one another. I also admired how Mark Twain did not camouflage aspects of slavery. For the most part, Mark Twain delivered the honest truth of slavery toward African Americans. All in all, I feel that this novel is worth the read and all students should have the opportunity to read such a great book that has so much valuable information.
