Why does Huck want to help the men on the wreck? What does this show us about him?
Huck wants to help the men on the wreck because he knows that its the right thing to do. he starts thinking about the things from his "proper" upbringing, before his drunken father steals him back. he wants to help them because he knows that life is important he wants to try and help them. he also thinks it will make up for doing bad things. this shows that even though he isn't the best kid and he is running away and lying to people that he really does have a good side and now that he is alone on the river with Jim it is starting to come out more.

I thought about the same thing when i wrote my response for this question. I saw Huck and Jim being together really had been bringing out the better side in Huck. He was started to act more like and adult and less like a kid.
