Huck Finn Reader Responce # 3 (ch.14-ch.18)

Huck is impress about the grangerford's house because the grangerford house was really nice and it had lots of style to go with it. It had a brass nob to turn the door. It had a very good fireplace in it and had big brass dog-irons and even a clock with a good picture around it on the glass front and some on he wall. They had parrots and a good table laying on the floor with oranges and apples on it.This says about huck that he likes a well splended family thats clean and rich. Quote - It was a mighty nice house and a mighty mice family. (pg.75, chapter 17, paragraph 5)

The books thats in the house was so special because they were all piled up so perfectly on each corner of the tables and the books were interesting. Some of the books he saw was family books, hymn books, henry clays speeches, Dr. Gunnls family medicine and one that was called "pilgrims's Progress". Huck was so interested in them because the book told about a kid running away from his own family and he read it a little because this was pretty much the same predicament he was in since he has run away from the widow and pap and every one else he was with at some point. About hucks's education this says that he likes and is interested in book and learning new things he have not knowned before. This says about twain's education that he a smart person and was interested in those types of book that he put in the story. Quote - There were some book to piled up perfectly exact, on each corner of the table. (pg.76, chapter 17, paragraph 2)

The drawings, poems and the scrapbook was unique because all of them was about people that were dying or people that have died before. The Significant of the painting of the girl on the brigde with three sets of arms was that this picture was a prayer for her to be allowed to live intill she have finished it. Three arms was to see witch arms goes best for the picture. She was sick while she did this and ended up dying when she finally got her mind made up. Twain discribe this so specifically because he wants to catch the readers eye when they read this part and make it sound so observing and realistic. This mights say about his view of death is that he takes death very serious. Huck is so touch by this girls life of art because he never heard such thoughful and crazy situations like this before and is a new experience for him. Quote - There was some that they called crayons, which one of the daughters which was dead made her own self when she was fifteen years old. (pg.76, chapter 17, paragraph 3)
