  1. I like reading fiction. I like reading fiction because I like how they are made up. And I like the creative ideas. Also I like how they don't give facts and it's a story. Also things are told like stories. I also like how things happen in fiction that aren't real like dogs talk.

  2. I like reading non-fiction because it gives you facts. My favorite non-fiction book is Penguins. I like how they have a table of contents. It allows me to skip around a little. I also like how there are different types of non-fiction and everything is real. You can't skip around in fiction or else you will not get the story. The text features in non-fiction really help me a lot. The one that helps me the most is headings because they tell you what the page is going to be about. Non-fiction is very interesting. That is why I like non-fiction.

  3. I like to read both fiction and non-fiction. I like to read non-fiction books like the "Who Was" books. Amelia Earhart is my favorite because she was interesting. I also liked learning about great people like Walt Disney. I also like to read fiction books like Charlotte's Web and Stuart Little. I like these books because they are cute. I also like to read "Rainbow Magic" books because they have animals included in them and I love all animals.

  4. I like reading non-fiction because it gives you interesting facts. My favorite non-fiction book is Wild Earth. I like it because it is really interesting. I read it over five times! It was so good. I love the glossary because it helps me understand the words in the book. I also like learning about Walt Disney. It tells you almost everything about him. I also like captions because they are sometimes really cool facts! These are the reasons why I like non-fiction.

  5. I like reading fiction because it can be anything like made up, but non- fiction has to be true and has to have facts based on real things. Also fiction can have a lot of detail because it is made up. It can also have made up names like in a book called The Grinch who Stole Christmas. In the book the name Grinch is made up. I also like reading realistic fiction. I like it because it seems real but it is not and there is this series called I Survived and it is about real disasters but made up characters . The author came to our school. That is why I like fiction. ~ Emma

  6. I like reading fiction because it can have mysteries you have to solve like Cam Jansen, A to Z mysteries, and a lot more books. Also some books are funny books like when I read when Georgia put out the Roald Dahl. I also like how in fiction they have really creative ideas like the book Elmer. I also like fiction because the names can be made up.

  7. My favorite type of book is fiction. I like fiction because it's sometimes funny and also mysterious. The most part about how I like funny is because it makes you laugh of course and also it is fun when it's funny. The most part about how I like mysterie books is because it makes you what to read more when you finished or when you have to go somewhere or do something.

  8. I like non-fiction because I like to learn new things, but I also love fiction because I like imaginative story's too. One reason I like non-fiction is because I love learning real things about really interesting things. another reason I like fiction is because their is some really funny things in the book. So I like fiction and non-fiction. Bye!!! :)

  9. I like fiction better than non-fiction because the stories are more adventurous. Sometimes the stories are unrealistic and that "revs up" my imagination. I like unrealistic things. Also, I like to connect the characters's feelings with my feelings. Non-fiction has a bunch of facts and timelines (that can be helpful). Fiction can be about anything at all which is very exciting! That is why I like fiction better than non-fiction.

  10. I like fiction because it can be very funny and creative. It can also give me great ideas. Another reason why I like fiction is that it can have anything, or even new made up things. Also, everyone pictures the writing in their mind differently. Another reason why I like fiction is that animals can talk, or other things like books. Authors can also think of new ideas that no one had ever thought of before. They can be very creative and artistic and do it in more than one way, not like non-fiction. Fiction books can also be very exciting and hard to put down. Another reason why I like fiction is that some are drama-packed and I like lots of action and drama. A last and final reason why I like fiction, is that it can stretch your imagination and bring it to life. These are the reasons why I like fiction.

  11. I like fiction books more than non-fiction because they are more creative than true facts. I like mysteries because I love to try to solve the mystery before the detective in the book solves it. Mysteries are my favorite genre and most mysteries are fiction. I especially like funny mysteries. They make me laugh a lot. The author must have a creative brain to publish a fiction book! My favorite fiction book is THE GOOSE’S GOLD, By Ron Roy. I read that book two times and I enjoyed reading it both times.

  12. I like non-fiction books the best. I like them because they give you a lot of facts. Also, you can skip around and read the parts that you want to read insead of reading the whole book. It is helpful to read non-fiction when you want to know about facts and things that are real. My favorite-non fiction books are about hockey. I love to play hockey and read about the sport. Also I like to read animal books too. This is why I like reading non-fiction.

  13. The book that I am reading right now is I Survived,which is realistic fiction. I think that this series of books are fiction. I am enjoying these books the most because they tell us about the real heart breaking things that have had happened in the world. I think that it is cool to experience these types of stories with both pictures and words.I also liked Charlottes Web because the animals were made to seem like people.I also liked the friendship between Charlotte and Wilbur. I will continue to read fiction because I like made up stories.
