How is Huck Affected by Tom Sawyer,Widow Douglas,Pap,and jim?Who has the most positive affect on him? Negative?why?




Huck Is affected By Tom because this is his best friend. Huck lokks up to Tom when he not even there."I was just a biling with curiosity and i say To myself,tom Sawyer wouldnt back down now and so i wont either".(pg51,ch12,p3)."If my best friend is strong then i will be to".tom Sawyer Has an good Affect on Huck.


Widow Douglas was A good Affect on Him. even though she may be tio him not she is. the widow cares for him and only wants whyats best. "The Widow She took me for her son,and allowed she would sivilize me"(pg1,ch1,p2) she to cares that he gets an education.


Pap Has a Negative Affect on him."But by and bye

The song that I chose was Promise Ring By Tiffany. This song talks about a boy and a girl and how the boy promises to the girl that he will be there for her forever. He talks About how he's going to protect her how he promises not to hurt her how he promises to befriend her with all is good and all. The girl of corse assepts his offer.

I like this song alot. I like it because it makes me want the same thing. It gives me hope that there is actually people out there who are realy like that who wants to be your friend and that wants to be there for you all the time.

This song connects to my life because, there is someone in my life who wants to be the true meaning of what a promise ring is. there is somebody who wants to protect me and who wants to be there in my life and be my true friend.

Relationship to Parents


"I hadshut the door.Then i turned arround, and there he was. I used to be so scared of him all the time, he tanned me so much"
Huch and his dad's relationship was not a great one. Huck's pap would be talking to him down and be telling him things like he cant be anything because no one in ther family ever was. His pap would say to him stop going up to that school. Hucks pap did not want Huck to read or know anything. hucks pap was not a good father at all.
"I closed the door and saw him i used to be scared of him and even this time he had tanned me alot"(ch.5,p.14,par 1).

the quote above to me was like the heading of exactly how the relationship with Huck's pap was. I think that pap is a ignorant person and father all arround he should be trying to make his son something. I dont think that huck should be scared of his own dad. I think he should just not even worrie about his dad because he knows exactly how he is. I personaly wish i was arround during that time because i would love to say anything to Huck's dad anything to make him see exactly how he is

Mark Twain I believe does not agree with the way these things were happining. I dont think he likes the things that were said during that time. I think that Mark Twain thinks that pap is ignorant and just rong. Twain think's pap is rong bevause he likes intelligent people. He does not like stupidity. I can personaly myself agree with Mr. Twain.
