Note to Miss Watson
Huck writes a letter to Miss Watson to tell her of the whereabouts of Jim because he was captured by a farmer. However, Huck had a change of heart. He started to think of all the times Jim was nice to him and how kind hearted he was. He didn't want to ruin that by sending him back to slavery. This is a big change in him. Throughout the book Huck has had to make decisions. One was whether to leave Jim behind or not. Now there is this one. Huck has started to stray away from the ignorant southerner. He has begun to think on his own instead of what his family taught him.

Jimmy,
I like how you mention that Huck is beginning to stray away from the "ignorant southerner"--that's a really good way of putting the life and lessons he was taught. Your blog has a lot of detail and good information to back up your opinions and what you're saying. I think you looked at it a different way that anyone else has, by stating that Huck is slowly moving away from his previous ways and ideals of being an ignorant southerner. Good blog.
