Oxford Children's Classics: The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn

This Oxford Children's Classic edition of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn offers the original and unabridged story by Mark Twain. Narrated by the resourceful and rebellious young boy, Huckleberry "Huck" Finn (the friend of Tom Sawyer), the story begins after Huck runs away from his cruel, abusive father.

Seeking freedom, Huck fakes his own death and soon teams up with Jim, a runaway slave, who is also seeking freedom. The pair build a raft and embark on a memorable, often dangerous journey down the Mississippi River. As they drift past towns and wilderness, their adventures force Huck to confront the moral complexities and prejudices of the pre-Civil War American South. Huck struggles with what society tells him is "right" and what his own conscience, fueled by his friendship with Jim, knows to be true.
