I'm not sure how it's better... I do tend to like fantasy better.
I plan on reading the Little House books to my kids and they are on the line between fiction and nonfiction. I think it's good for kids to know about how things use to be.
disagree with the description, so disagree overall ...
non-fiction is great, but if something is fiction it should clearly announce the fact all through it self not go around trying to look "real"
the most dangerous lies are the ones with the most truth in them
