Read the excerpt from The Odyssey. At this he gave a mighty sob and rumbled: 'Now comes the weird upon me, spoken of old. A wiza

rd, grand and wondrous, lived here—Telemus, a son of Euryinus; great length of days he had in wizardry among the Cyclopes, and these things he foretold for time to come: my great eye lost, and at Odysseus' hands. Always I had in mind some giant, armed in giant force, would come against me here. But this, but you—small, pitiful and twiggy— you put me down with wine, you blinded me. Come back, Odysseus, and I'll treat you well, praying the god of earthquake to befriend you— his son I am, for he by his avowal fathered me, and if he will, he may heal me of this black wound—he and no other of all the happy gods or mortal men.’ Why does the Cyclops invite Odysseus back to the island?

Odysseus took away the eye of the Cyclops after he got him drunk on wine. Cyclops invited Odysseus back to the same island, not to hurt or kill him, but to let him know that it was Odysseus that was destined to take his eye from him. Cyclops wanted to treat him well upon his return and befriend him.

Huckleberry Finn is one of the best books that illustrates the slavery era in United States of America. Its writer, Mark Twain successfully describes and takes the reader back to the darkness of that specific moment in history. The story, is perfect for children to learn it and read it at school. They will not only be reading about the adventures of a white boy and his friend, a runaway slave, but they will also learn about language, history, culture and privilege. Schools should have this book, and should teach it to the students, because knowledge is the only tool that civilizations have to learn from their past mistakes.

The point made by parts that are against of having the book being taught as schools is that the harshness used by Twain to tell the story, may be to excessive for a children, and that in the end it may cause the adverse effect on young children. This statement is dangerous, because it is ripping from children their intelligence and capacity of analyzing diverse moments in the history of the world. By banning a book, you are not keeping the kids safe from the real world, you are just impeding them to learn and create an independent thought about the history of their own country.

The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, should be taught in school, in its original version, so that the children, with the guidance of the teachers, can learn about the past, a past that if is not through books and history, they would not be able to recollect. The book is a helpful learning tool that can be used as an opening point for discussion and learning.
