As a young adult, Noah Webster was a teacher. At that time, the colonies were fighting for independence from Britain, yet the books that American children used in school all came from Britain.
The books were all about British people and British places. Webster wrote books with examples that would mean more to the Americans --a grammar book, a spelling book, and a reader. These books were very popular, and millions of them were sold.
Webster was interested in changing the spelling of words. He wanted words to be spelled the way they were pronounced. For example, he thought the word "head" should be spelled " hed", and the word "laugh" should be spelled "laf".
