Should Huck Finn be taught in CHS?

The book Huck Finn is about a boy who lives in Mississippi. The author Mark Twain has many controversial issues in the book. But I think it shouldn't be taught in school. But I have one reason why it should be. One reason Huck Fin shouldn’t be taught in school is the language Mark Twain uses, the second is because of the stuff Huck does. The reason why it should be taught in school is because it teaches you a lot through out the book.

One reason why Huck Finn shouldn’t be taught in school is the language it uses. Huck does not care what people think, so in the book Mark Twain makes him use some words that shouldn’t be said. In the first and second chapter he use the "N" word a lot. This isn’t the 1800’s; you can’t use that kind of language. A lot of people might get offended if they read the book and seen how many times it was used.

The second reason it shouldn’t be taught in school is because of the stuff Huck does. He runs away, curses, smokes, and sneaks out. When people read this book they don’t want their kids thinking that they can smoke or curse. Not all kids are like this but some are. When them kind of kids read the book they will think that they can get away with that. Also he lies all the time. Kids might think if they lie they can get away with stuff.

Finally the reason I think it should be taught is because you could learn a lot from it. The book is different because of the way it was written. He wrote it the way he speaks. It is really hard to follow. It could teach them how to read in different ways.

As you can see Huck Finn is very controversial. The way he talks, and the things he does. But it is also a god learning too. It could teach kids how to read better
