Twain further developed ideas for his writing by traveling extensively, producing works inspired by his journeys like The Innocents Abroad and Life on the Mississippi.

Mark twain
Mark Twain, born Samuel Langhorne Clemens in 1835, was a famous American author best known for his novels The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Twain drew from his childhood experiences growing up on the Mississippi River to write these classics that have brought enjoyment to millions of readers. While Tom Sawyer was well received when published in 1876, Huckleberry Finn faced more controversy due to its portrayal of slavery and racism in the pre-Civil War American South. Both novels provide a glimpse into life during that time period and comment on issues of freedom and social justice that still resonate today.
John Steinbeck
John Steinbeck was an American author born in 1902 in Salinas, California. He showed an early love of literature encouraged by his mother and attended Stanford University before leaving without a degree. His early novels were ignored but his 1935 novel Tortilla Flat was successful, leading to his winning the Pulitzer Prize in 1940 for The Grapes of Wrath. Steinbeck was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1962 in recognition of his realistic and imaginative writings. He died in 1968 but his works, including Of Mice and Men set in his hometown of Salinas, continue to teach readers about the human experience.

The document discusses connections between the story of Yertle the Turtle by Dr. Seuss and Adolf Hitler's rise and fall in Nazi Germany. It notes that Yertle represents Hitler as a despotic ruler who used others as stepping stones to power. The turtle Mack, who questions Yertle's rule, represents the Soviet Union's reluctance to aid Hitler's campaigns. Ultimately, like Hitler was brought down by the United States and Britain, the story suggests Mack's overthrow of Yertle represents the Nazi defeat on the Eastern Front, though it was the Allied forces that defeated Germany.
