The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn  (TwainMark)

The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, a novel by Mark Twain, is counted among the greatest American novels. The novel begins with Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn finding a large amount of money as a result of their earlier adventures. Huck is placed under the guardianship of Widow Douglas who makes all efforts to civilise him but in vain. He escapes from the captivity of his drunkard father and sets out on a journey down the Mississippi River along with Jim, an escaping slave. The journey turns out to be a dangerous one as the two friends encounter adventures with hilarious and menacing characters. The humour of the book lies in the way Huck expresses himself.

The book makes an interesting read with its funny characters and comical situations. The stylish realistic illustrations are edgy and contemporary but not without the charm that is essentially classic!
