Chp 9 - NON-Fiction

Okay, so I had a "dislike" for non-fiction back in my day. I used to check out non-fiction books only when I truly had to. For instance when I had to do my science project, or when I was writing a report about a famous historic figure. Otherwise, you wouldn't see me near the non-fiction part of the library.

However, the face of non-fiction has changed tremendously. I loved the "Diary of a..." series of non-fiction books. It seems that these books could make learning fun, and the pictures are so kid friendly. I also important to have your students try to become non-fiction writers.

Regarding non-fiction I found a cute book called Germs Make Me Sick!, and the book has great illustrations.
The authors are Melvin Berger, and the illustrator is Marylin Hafner.






These books are great teaching tools for teaching your students the effects of germs on your body. I think that these books make learning about health and wellness more easy to take in.

I agree with you 100%! Non fiction really has come a super long way! If they would of had the types of books out like they have out today I probably would have read non fiction more! I love those diary of.... books!
