The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn was written by Samuel Langhorne Clemens, known as Mark Twain. He was born in Missouri on November 30, 1835. Before he became one of America’s celebrated authors, he worked as a printer’s apprentice, licensed Mississippi riverboat pilot, typesetter, and substitute editor for local newspapers. His childhood experiences in the antebellum South inspired the book's regionalism and anti-slavery themes. RR EE Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer found $12,000 in treasure, where Huck gains a large amount, which the bank holds for him. He is adopted by the Widow Douglas and her sister, Miss Watson, who tried to educate and civilize him, but he dislikes their strict way of life. •The Million Pound Bank Note •The War Prayer • A Dog's Tale • Extracts from Adam's Diary — A story of freedom, friendship, and the American conscienceFFSypnosisSypnosisSypnosisMark TwainTheTheTheTheTheHuckleberry FinnHuckleberry FinnHuckleberry FinnAdventuresAdventuresAdventuresAdventuresAdventuresOfOfOfOfOfSCAN THIS:WHERE TO READWHERE TO READWebsites: • Adobe • Project Gutenberg • American Literature• Lit2Go • Standard eBooks • Internet ArchiveHis other works:His other works: Group 5Group 5 EEriendshipriendship esponsibilityesponsibility qualityquality scapescape Huck’s abusive and alcoholic father, Pap, returns to kidnap him for his money.
