Johann David Wyss was born on May 28, 1743, in Bern, Switzerland, and became a pastor and military chaplain.

These tales would later form the foundation of The Swiss Family Robinson.Written between 1794 and 1798, the novel was meant to teach moral lessons through adventure and survival. His son, Johann Rudolf Wyss, edited and published it in 1812, while another son, Johann Emmanuel Wyss, illustrated it. The story quickly gained popularity and became a classic of children's literature.The book's success led to multiple translations and adaptations across various media. It remains one of the most influential adventure novels, shaping survival fiction for generations. Wyss passed away on January 11, 1818, but his literary legacy continues to inspire readers worldwide.
