Realistic Fiction

•  <---CMS Wiki Book Club  

 

In realistic fiction, everything seems possible, normal, REAL.
The characters act as you would expect them to act.  The setting seems to be a place you could visit.  The problems seem like problems that you or your friends might have.

 

Realistic fiction can include:

•  Adventure and survival stories
• Humorous stories
• Romance
• Sports stories
   

Realistic fiction is exciting because it tells a story that could happen to you.
