Questions should be answered on a separate sheet of paper and remain in your folder at all times. Questions will be regarded as part of reading homework unless otherwise noted and will help form a basis for class discussion. Chapters 1-3 In the opening lines of the novel, what important details does Huck give the reader about the end of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer?

Even thought the boys want to be outlaws, they do not want to meet on Sunday, a church day, for their meetings. What does this fact say about the seriousness of their wishes to be outlaws?

Why would people regard Hucks wish to hide Jim as a bad thing? Why does Huck make this decision despite what people may say? Why might Huck feel closer to Jim than to others in the village?
