If you are required to write an 8-paragraph essay on these two characters, I would suggest the following format:
1st paragraph - introduction with thesis statement
2nd paragraph - Tom's physical traits
3rd paragraph - Tom's personality/ethics
4th paragraph - Huck's physical traits
5th paragraph - Huck's personality/ethics
6th paragraph - Compare & contrast Tom and Huck physically
7th paragraph - Compare & contrast Tom and Huck ethically/personalities
8th paragraph - conclusion
Of course this is not a "set in stone" way of writing an essay, but it would give you a good framework to begin with. Also remember that it is very important to use properly quoted examples from the book to support what you are saying about these characters.
Check the links below for more information about Tom and Huck. Good luck!
