1st impressions of Huck Finn
As Huck Finn was introduced in the novel The Adventures of Huck. Finn by Mark Twain, i figured he was not raised with manners or very educated. I got this impression from the way he saw life while he was taken in by the widow. He seemed to me like he lacked a family to teach his manners as i saw in the scene where he felt that sitting down to have dinner and prayer before dinner were unusual to him. Huck Finn also seems like a very adventurous boy since he is always looking for something to do and accepts Tom's request of forming a band of robbers. Since Huck never really had a family, he sees his friends as his family and does not really distinguish right from wrong. He also doesn't seem to have morals in life and feels that religion is silly. I believe that all the mischief Huck may get into in the future will directly be caused by the fact he never had a family.
