"The adventures of HuckleBerry Finn" By:Stanley Suter

        Prompt-Are the characters realistic? Why or Why not?

        This week I have been reading "The adventures of Huckleberry Finn" By:Mark Twain, and so far it has been both good, and really hard to read. I really like the plot line, a boy who would rather be in the wilderness than living in houses and following rules. So he does something about it. He escapes from his no-good dad and makes it look like he died and was dragged out of the house. He is a theif and often taking advantage of other peoples sympathy, getting hundreds and even thousands of dollars off of peolpe that support the church.

        The main character Huckleberry is the most realistic character in a book that I have ever read. He is almost never brave in the hard situations, and unlike in other books he often fails with robberies, meeting frauds and other crooks along the way. The author always sets up the perfect love scene, then  he ruins every one of them with a need for a plan or a silly sceme. Another character who seems realistic is Jim. He is the only negro in their groop and he is wanted for running away. He wants to get back his family and free himself by getting across the border and into the north.

        Some of the characters that arn't realistic are the "King" and the "Duke". They are two men that got onto the raft for refuge and then started playing whole towns out of their money. They knew every scheme that people could pull out of their sleve and it seems like he knows what everyone else is doing. What seems unrealistic about them is how Jim and Huckleberry saved them, and they immediately turn behind Jim and Huckleberry's back and try to go through with a plan without them.
