Along the way, Huckleberry Finn encounters Tom Sawyer, and the two hatch a plan to save Jim from a lifetime of slavery. The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is often named among the great American novels. Mark Twain Highlights the immoral act of slavery by placing both Huckleberry and Jim in similar circumstances. Helping an escaped slave is in direct conflict with Huckleberry's upbringing in Missouri, but he makes a moral choice based on his valuation of friendship and human worth. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Look What I've Got","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":34618976567432,"sku":"20-18-11-29","price":12.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/1141\/5176\/products\/IMG_0414.jpg?v=1606351898"},{"product_id":"hardcover-the-icarus-agenda-by-robert-ludlum-1988","title":"Hardcover The Icarus Agenda by Robert Ludlum, 1988","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHardcover first edition print of The Icarus Agenda by Robert Ludlum.
