Huck and Jim and a Girl

     Now that we have read more of the novel I am learning the ways of Huck. I think that it is good that Jim and Huck are together learning new things about each other and seeing the new ways they are having to live. I think that it is funny that Huck dresses up as a girl as a disguise to go across the water to see who is now living in the house. A women lives there and invites Huck inside to chat. She eventually discovers that Huck is indeed an actual boy. He makes up more lies about himself but the lady lets him know that if he ever needs any help, her and her husband will be there. While Huck is there, she informs him that her husband and another man are on their way to Jackson's Island to see if Jim ran away there. I think this part of the book is kind of suspenseful because once Huck hears her say that, he is in a rush to leave. It is good that he gets back to the island in time to wake Jim and get everything packed up to leave.
