### From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is a book written by Mark Twain, published in 1884. It is a sequel to his earlier book, Tom Sawyer.

It is the story of the boy Huckleberry Finn, who already appeared in Tom Sawyer. Huck, formerly a vagabond, now lives with the Widow Douglas, who tries to teach him to be civilized and acceptable to society. Then one day Huck's father comes back, who is an alcoholic and treats Huck very badly, so Huck runs away. He meets Jim, a black slave who wants to escape to freedom, and they travel down the Mississippi River on a raft. The book tells of their adventures together.

It is controversial for having the "n" word in it.
