Is Huck Adaptable...

Huck Finn is an odd character who uses his extensive knowledge of the natural world and relatively limited knowledge of the civilized and everyday world as reasoning for every decision he makes. He often is misguided in his views, but nonetheless he takes his encounters and experiances one step at a time. Huck's decision to just up and make a run for it was spontaneous, but the manner in which he made his escape was by weaving a crafty plan, carefully thought out, each intricacy mirroring Huck's personality. His belief that once he left his home, he could just live on his own in, on Jackson's island, displayed his confidence in his ability for adaptation, but after a few days, he cannot stand the solitary life. During his brief experiance living alone on the island, he is completely self sufficient, but the source of his downfall was his inability to entertain themselves. Huck is practical, however his reasoning is somewhat misguided.
