Mark Twain wrote of a boy by the name of Huck Finn. This boy was introduced into the story as a boy with neither morals nor a conscience; Huck is a flat out liar. He lies about anything and everything, even when he doesn¡¯t have to. He is also a trouble maker; sneaking out at night and worrying the widow, playing tricks on people. Huck is a wild child. But by the end of the story, he has changed. Huck is still a liar, a trouble maker, and a wild child. But he is also, in some ways, a man. Furthermore, Huck has developed morals and a conscience.

But Huck can hardly be blamed for his actions, although the actions could have been done more elegantly. That is how Twain chooses to start the story, making the reader think Huck is a resourceful yet a bit self-centered.
             Later Huck meets Jim and from that point on, the goodness in Huck is brought out more and more. The first example of his kindness is when he realizes there are men headed for Jackson¡¯s Island looking for Jim. Huck hurries back to the Island and saves the drowsy Jim from capture and possibility a lynching. For the townspeople believe it was Jim who killed Huck.
             Huck¡¯s second act of goodness is saving murderers from dying on the wreck of the Walter Scott. H...
