Chapter 9

I agree with the authors of this book. I believe non-fiction books are an excellent supplement to textbooks in science and social studies or even in other subjects because kids can learn a lot from these type of books. I also found it interesting to know that boys especially like these type of books. I suppose it's probably because they can find books on topics that interest them like cars, trucks or dinosaurs. So I can see how they like this genera. Girls on the other hand, probably like fiction books better because they like the stories that they can relate too.
