"Sketches New and Old, Part 7" by Mark Twain is a compilation of funny essays and stories from the late 1800s that takes a look at life in America. Twain uses his sharp humor to poke fun at things like politics, how people act, and what society thinks is normal. Many of his stories are about everyday things, so people can easily connect with them. For example, Twain tells about meeting the funny guy Artemus Ward and exaggerates the time a train got stuck in the snow. These stories show how good Twain is at telling stories, mixing jokes with serious thoughts about society. His clever writing makes people laugh and think about important issues, all while keeping things light and fun.
