Huckleberry Finn is a well constructed character. He's very dynamic, in the time being of the novel he turns into a good person. In the beginning of the novel, Mark Twain set out Huck as an annoying kid, but in the end transformed him into a mature young man. Huck realized the importance of family, and developed an active conscience.
Huck Finn was growing up without a family. In the end of the novel, he realized the necessity of love from a family. Tom and he were the first set example of a need for family. Huck was the younger brother to Tom, as he listened to everything he said and did as someone would do to an older brother. For example, when Tom was humiliating Jim by making him sleep with animals, Huck didn't interfere or saying anything, he just went along with whatever he said. At the very end, he realized that he liked to be with the widows and they were an important thing in his life, since they were his guardians. Jim and Huck were like their own little family, since they cared for each other. "I hadn't had a bite to eat since yesterday, so Jim he got out some corn-dodgers and buttermilk, and pork and cabbage and greens there ain't nothing in the world so good when it is cooked right." When Huck said that, it was evidence that Jim cared for Huck, almost like his own son. Huckleberry valued family more as he matured throughout the book.
Huck Finn developed an open and active conscience as time went on. He evolved a better sense to tell right from wrong.
