Question: Can someone help me with one question from the book The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn? The question I need help with is not very specific, but maybe someone can help anyways. \n\nThe question I need help with is from Chapter 36 "Trying to Help Jim", it asks: \n    1. What is letting on? Why is it important in this chapter?\n\nIf anyone can help, I would appreciate it. Thanks! \n\nPs. I've already looked on SparkNotes.

Answer: this chapter is important because it shows a different side to Huck, he starts to look at jim as a normal human being instead of a "nigga".  This is when he has a battle within himself, between what he was taught by the widow and what he has learned from experience during his journey.
