<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">At the beginning of the month I sent out a query asking for suggestions of historical fiction picture books. Thought I’d share the final compilation with you all. As I was compiling it became clear there is
lots of gray area around what was considered fiction by all the recommenders. So in this list I’ve made a distinction between fictional, based on a true story, and nonfiction, which I personally think represent a kind of broad range from fiction to nonfiction.
All this brings up some interesting questions in my mind about what kids at younger ages (where most of these books might logically be aimed) really see as the difference between fiction and truth and what is the role of us as librarians to make that distinction
for them. No answers from me just interesting things to explore, if you’d like to respond with your thoughts I’d be happy to hear them.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
