Huckleberry Finn didn't like living with his drunk father, so he comes up with a tricky scheme.  When his father is gone, Huck makes it look like he was murdered by his Dad and runs off in a boat.  Everyone thought Huckleberry was dead.  While Huck was camping out on the shore, he meets his friend, Jim, an escaped slave.  Together, they go on many adventures from watching a crime on an abandoned ferry to risking their lives on their raft going down wild water.  "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" is definitely one of Mark Twain's greatest books.
