Mark Twain set a high for writing stories. His writings about the Mississippi River, such as The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, Life on the Mississippi, and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, were some of the most popular of his time. Twain is a hero in the world of writing. Twain found a way to connect with his audience though humor and entertainment. Teens now don’t really read his stories, but Nickelodeon showed an episode of Fairly Odd Parents with Tom Sawyer as a character back in mid 2000’s. This episode basically retold the story of Tom Sawyer but in a kid version. Twain being the amazing writer he was with his incredible stories influenced Nickelodeon to produce this episode. Is stories also influenced more writers to make fictional characters and add some humor to their stories. Tom Sawyer was not the only story of his to be
recognized in a show. Many more of Mark Twain’s books have been made into a small TV series or some other kind of program. With his great mind and creativity Mark Twain will always shine as one of the best writers in history.
True...I wish more people still read him!
