Reader Response #2 ch 7-13 huck finn

Huck was influenced by Tom Sawyer because he was one of his freinds and he was someone he could look up to for help and just to talk. Huck could go and do things with Tom Saywer and it would an experience for both of them.



In chapter 1 page 2 paragraph 3 Huck complains that Miss Watson the widow would say to him "don't put your feet up there,Huckleberry;"and "don't scrunch up like that,Huckleberry-set up straight." She was a good influence on him because she trying to tell him that it is good to go to chruch and dress nice.



Pap was a bad influence on him becasue he was never there for him and he always get drunk. Ch5,pg14,par3 "Don't you give me none o' your lip," says he."You've put on consireable many frills since i been away. I'll take you down a peg before i get dne with you. You're educated,too,they say;can read and write. You think you're better'n your father,now,don't you,because he can't? I'll take it out of you. wjo told you youo might meddle with such hifalut'n foolishness,hey? who told you you could?" Huck respond the Widow. Huck's pap is trying to get his to do the things that he doing with him. Pap doesn't belive in education i am guessing because instead of being happy and glad that he's getting his education pap would rather huck not do it. I think becasue pap didn't get that chance to do it and huck does he don't want his doing it or maybe it's something else.



Jim is another influecne on Huck because he can talk to him. Jim was brve and when they heard something (meaning jim and huck) jim would look to see what it was. jim didn't want huck to see waht jim has seen. In a way jim was protecting Huck.
