Huck finn

Mark Twain's The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is a bildungsroman (coming of age novel) as well as a picaresque (a story that occurs during a journey). Huck embarks on an adventure that transforms him from a naïve child to a mature young adult. Throughout his journey, Huck experiences many encounters that help change him like staying at the Grangerfords, traveling with the duke and dauphin, and freeing Jim from the Phelps …

…Jim mourns for his family and says, "It don't seem natural," which leads him to conclude that Jim loves his family as much as white men love theirs. Although he is a young boy with a limited education, he is willing to think for himself and make his own conclusions. He reveals to be more than his meager background and worthless father and proves to be an exemplary character for a society filled with corruption.
