PARENTING ARTICLES & TIPS

First published in 1885, 'Huckleberry Finn' is one of the undoubted masterpieces of American literature.

'Cordially hated and dreaded by all the mothers of the town because he was idle, and lawless, vulgar, and bad - and because all their children admired him so', Huckleberry Finn, the fourteen-year-old son of the town drunkard, joins runaway slave Jim on an exciting journey down the mighty Mississippi River on a raft.

"It's the best book we've had. All American writing comes from that. There was nothing before. There has been nothing as good since."
