The Characters of Tom Sawyer

Tom Sawyer: Tom Is motivated partially by greed, but mostly the desire to misbehave. He takes joy in causing others grief and distress. Tom believes that the world is there to serve him and do hos bidding. He loves tricking people into working for him, like when he convinced multiple towns kids that whitewashing a fence was a once in a lifetime opportunity. This characteristic makes Tom very predictable. Whenever he is given the chance to misbehave of pull a stunt he will gladly take up the offer.

Huckleberry Finn: Huckleberry Finn or Huck Finn as he is usually called, is a kid that has no family and doesn't believe in following rules the that others try to bind him with. He refuses to go to school and he doesn't go to church. Because Huck is a 'rebel' so to say Tom admires him greatly.

Becky Thatcher is a newcomer to tom's town. She was pretty to tom and he tried to show off in front of her house. for his efforts, Becky threw Tom a flower. This tells allot about Becky. She is kind and has a sense of humor. Later, Becky rejects tom because she finds out that he has been engaged once before already. This shows me that she has fragile feelings and even the most insignificant event can alter her mood and feelings greatly.

Amy Lawrence was previously engaged to tom sawyer but is now single... The Fact that she was once committed to tom, and is now 'free' means that she is probably not emotionally stable and must have been upset numerous times. Amy is probably desperate. She is also most likely to be jealous of Becky being engaged to tom. Amy's personality is not easy to predict, who knows what she might do out of desperation.

Sid is tom's brother. he is rude and desperately needs a reality check. last time I heard Sid talk he was denouncing Tom and calling him a liar. Sid obviously loathes Tom to such an extent that he would rather leave home than cooperate nicely with Tom. Sid is the devious type that always has a trick or prank up his sleeve. Whenever Sid is given the chance to prank or snitch on tom he will obviously jump at the chance. This quality makes Sid easy to predict.
