On Mondays this year, I’m going to be sharing some of these resources and
providing ideas for how they might be used in the classroom. Today, I’m going
to focus on the What’s an Informational Book? section, which you can access by
clicking on the Nonfiction Reading Resources icon.


This section includes an article about the various definitions of the
term “informational book/text,” a description of the term “informational
fiction,” and information about the term “pseudo-narrative,” which refers to
informational fiction narrated by a made-up character, such as an animal or an
inanimate object.


I hope you’ll take a look at these resources.
