During these chapters Huck becomes more tricky, even though each time he feels bad about what he did or what he would do. For example, when the come ashore Huck was going to sell out Jim so he couldn't be free; however, when he came across two man he quickly tricked them to stay away from where Jim was at. I don't understand why Huck feels like it's his duty to decide whether or not Jim becomes a free man. Huck never owned Jim it was Ms. Watson's slave.
It is important that during the trip there are many times that Jim and Huck were separated. At the end of chapter 16 a giant steamboat is heading right for the raft. Once the steam boat is hit both jump off and become separated. Huck screams out for Jim but there is no replay. As he finally makes it to the shore he is cornered off by dogs. I fear that Jim maybe got hurt from the steamboat and could be in real danger.
I know that the time that this book takes place that there were many slaves, but there were also freed slaves in the north. I dislike how Huck wants to turn him in when all Jim just really wants to be free and make a living to buy back his wife and take his kids to the north so they also can be free. In fact, Jim would like to be Huck's friend.
