    The title of the book that I am doing my report on is Of Mice and Men. The author of this realistic fictional novel is John Steinbeck. The Penguin Group published it. Of Mice and Men was published in 1937 and has 107 pages.

I believe that the author wanted to inform us about how hard economic times were back during the Great Depression.…
