Celebrated Jumping Frog

I enjoyed your post, as I too wrote about his short story “The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County”. I think it is such a great piece and is considered a classic because he uses this American style to produce humor for the readers along with write about what problems they were facing in those times through his writing without seemingly doing so. What I enjoy most about Twain and his style of writing is how he can make a slang sentence hold so much meaning and I see much irony there. I think this story in particular also holds such importance because being one of his first stories, I think it helped establish himself as a humorist writer. Thanks for sharing, I look forward to reading more from
