Huck tells us (indirectly) how old he is in the narrative . . . Adventures of Huckleberry Finn - Chapter 17 "Buck looked about as old as me --- thirteen or fourteen or along there, though he was a little bigger than me. He hadn't on anything but a shirt, and he was very frowsy-headed. He come in gaping and digging one fist into his eyes, and he was dragging a gun along with the other one." The kid in the Disney film is 11 years old. KB
