I always loved reading Mark Twin stories when I was younger, it holds a lot of memories for me. My aunts, who were my grandpa's sisters would always have his books in their house among others, but I was drawn to his because I loved the characters of Tom Sawyer and especially Huckleberry Finn. Mark Twain writes with common sense, he pokes fun at the way people behave when he doesn't agree with their beliefs, but he always makes sense. Even as a young kid I could read his stories, they were entertaining back then, but reading them as an adult now I get much more meaning out of them. You truly see how Mark felt about slavery, and about how people thought they were better than others just because of their social class. I remember watching the movies that brought these characters to life for me, it was a much simpler place and time.
