Super-sentence on Contemporary Realistic Fiction.
Contemporary Realistic Fiction Books have plots, characters, and settings, based on the problems, dilemmas, and ups and downs of life in today's world, engaging the reader because they may have or could face similar problems.
How can we use this genre in the classroom?
Contemporary Realistic Fiction can be used in the classroom in a number of ways. Children like reading about characters their own age because they can relate to them. Characters in these stories are likely to have similar interests and face similar problems to those faced by the reader. As the characters experience feelings and desires the readers can come to understand that their feelings are not unique and they are not alone in what they’re going through.
Reading about children overcoming problems can instill hope and help children overcome their own problems. Children coping with pent up emotion, anxiety, and fear can take some relief from stories with similar circumstances. Certain stories can make children realize the evils of abuse and bullying. It can open avenues for discussion allowing children can talk about their feelings. Contemporary Realistic Fiction can also provide children with hours of reading enjoyment through pleasure and escape.

opening AVENUES for discussion( you always bring a new word to my vocabulary). I had not thought of that. I like that, I think children should talk to other children their age and learn to be sociable at the same time.
