Huck Finn begins that novel as the narrator. Huck starts the story speaking about how Huck and tom inherit a large sum of money ($6,000 to be exact). Huck lives with the Widow, but hates it and decides that it would be best to runaway, which isn't very smart in my own thoughts. Tom Sawyer (Huck's best friend) convinces him to return so he can join their so called gang. All attempts to "civilize" Huck fail 110%. The first chapter ends with Huck and Tom meeting outside Huck's window. Huck and Tom wake up Jim, the widow's slave so as a joke they decide it would be best to play a trick on Jim by taking off his hat and setting it on a tree branch. Jim thinks he's been "bewitched" and later gains fame as a "witch expert". Tom and Huck meet their friends at a cave that serves as the boys' secret hideout after having a good quiet laugh over the prank that they pulled on Jim. The boys form a band of robbers but soon the gang disbands an after that Huck realizes that Tom's stories are just lies so then we take note that Huck has no imitation what so over.
