Hi this is Chance and I am reading The Adventures of Huck Finn and this book has a lot of different stereotypes in it, and I mean a lot. One of the less obvious Stereotypes in this book was the king and the duke. They represent the stereotype of two rednecks pretending to be scholarly so they could con the naive townspeople and steal money from them. Another person that could fit a stereotype even better is pap, who represents the stereotypical drunk father who is always angry all the time no matter what and abuses his son. Overall, the book The Adventures of Huck Finn has stereotypes of all kinds in it.

  1. In my book Uncle Tom's Cabin there are many stereotypes too. Like how everyone, even abolitionists, believe that blacks have a child like mind and can't make important decisions. This is because they didn't get much schooling at all so they don't know much compared to whites.
