In the Arctic, there lived a polar bear named Nanook.
He sailed to Egypt on an iceberg.
The Egyptians found him and he became the young Pharaoh's friend.
He became homesick, but he looked up and saw the same stars he saw in the Arctic.

setting for Huck Finn
Separate
slavery
Slavery is one of the big things that separate people. In the story, whites think of blacks as animals, but mostly possessions.
Money, education, and a job
People with money, education, and a good job are always in the higher class. Like the Duke and the King, they treat themselves as better and more important than other people.
A feud
In chapter eighteen, the feud between the Granderfords and the Shepherdsons came in. When two people think that they are rite and will not give in, they call on there family members and they call on there family members and so on, things start to get bad and turns into a feud.
Together
Respect
People with slaves get respect through there slaves. Huck did not have very much respect for the widow.
The river
The river brought people together by rafts, canoes, and ferry boats.

Huck and Jim's escape
When Huck escaped, he had time to set up a scene that made it look like he was murdered. He also had time to take supplies like food, cooking supplies and weapons.
Jim had less time to work with so he escaped at the first chance he got. He did not take anything with him which made things a lot harder.

thoughts on making a map by Bard's Black Arrow blog
I agree with Johnathon that the grapefruit map didn't really look like a map. I think it looked like two grapefruit skins. Back in the times of Columbus, maps were not very accurate. On maps back then, the world was a lot smaller, and there were only three continents. Europe, Africa and Asia.

Huckleberry Finn
I liked the part when Huck sawed his way out of the cabin. In boy scouts, the twelve points of the "scout law" is to be trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean and reverent. He would have to work on most of these but atleast he can survive.
