Did you know: Sam Clemens (AKA Mark Twain) loved to hold watermelon-seed-spitting contests, play hooky, and borrow boats to go fishing and digging for turtle eggs with his best friend Tom, of course! Zora Neale Hurston first learned to walk when a hungry wild hog wandered into her house for some of her mother s cornbread and young Zora had to toddle her way to safety.
