ANSWER: Realistic fiction serves children in the process of
understanding and coming to terms with themselves as they acquire “human-ness.”
They are books that honestly portray the realities of life and help children gain a fuller understanding of human problems and human relationships and thus, a fuller understanding of themselves and their own potential.
Most children appear to identify more readily with characters in books of contemporary realism than those of historical fiction or fantasy
Realistic fiction helps children enlarge their frames of reference while seeing the world from another perspective.
