What is a fiction book?
A fiction book tells a story of
people, places, or things that are not true. It tells a story and is not based on facts or truth. All fiction books are made-up or
imaginary.
All fiction books in our media center are found in two areas
the Easy Fiction and the Fiction sections. They are arranged
alphabetically according to the first
two letters of the author’s last name.
Books have names and “addresses”
just like people do. A street address lets people know where someone lives. A
call number works like a street number- it tells where to find a book in the library.
A call number is found on the spine
of the book.
Easy Fiction books are sometimes called picture books because the have lots of pictures and less text
or fewer words.
If the book is an Easy Fiction book it
will have an E for easy on the spine plus the first two
letters of the author’s last name.
This information tells us the address
of the book. The section of the library and the shelf where
it belongs.
