Tom dreams about treasure and adventure. Huck dreams about freedom from the constraints of Southern society. I suggest you take a look at the GradeSaver summary for more. You have too many questions in one entry for this forum.

Tom dreams about treasure and adventurous journeys, while Huck dreams about freedom from the village. How this tells us a difference is that Tom wants riches and feels content in his home. He likes the village while Huck may feel as if the village is a giant cage so to speak. He just wants to be freeto do his own thing.
