Thanks for the suggestions, everyone. I think we'll tackle Tom Sawyer and save Huck for later.

At 11 and 12, I would go with Tom Sawyer for sure.

I thought that chronologically TS came first, HF came later.

At any rate, TS is much more "readable". Both are excellent.

I loved Tom Sawyer. Huck Finn was too serious

How old are the kids? Tom Sawyer is more fun, and Huckleberry Finn grapples more deeply with real issues.

Adventures of Huckleberry Finn or Tom Sawyer - if you had to pick just one to read with your kids, which one would you pick?
