Where Tom always has his nose in a book, Huck runs away to the river or woods when he needs to escape.
Where Tom is imaginative, Huck is practical.
Sure, Tom has a stable home and a good upbringing (a "character to lose", as Huck puts it), but he's different from Huck in other ways. Maybe Huck admires Tom because they're so different. He's imaginative, mischievous, and totally, hilariously, impractical. And he is-well, he's basically like any pre-teen kid who spends his time reading adventure novels or too many comic books. Tom Sawyer is Huck's good friend, introduced in a previous book by Mark Twain, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. We first met Tom in Mark Twain's previous book, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer.
