Huck Finn

As the title explains, this book is going to be an adventurous one. In chapter 2 of the novel, Huck and Tom get together with 'the gang' in a cave. It is curious to know how old these guys are, because they are thinking about murdering people. But then there is one boy there who fell asleeep, and said he didn't want to be a robber anymore. So Tom had to give him 5 cents in order not to tell anyone. So in one way, i think that they can't be that old. But just the fact that they are actually thinking of stealing & killing people makes me think that they are older. I would guess that they are probably in their early teens. But then again, from the way that Huck eats, i could say that he's probably 10 years old or something. cause he doesn't have any manners. Huck and Tom and good buddies, but they seem different from each other. Tom is more of a leader & boss type person. Where as Huck is sort of easy going and does as he's told by Tom. Tom does a lot of pranks and seems like a bad boy. He's the one who got the idea of the oath from books about pirates and robbers.
