My favorite picture book as a child was Don't Let the Pigeon Drive This Bus! By: Mo Willems. I think this was my favorite book when I was a child because just the idea of it I feel it was just funny to let a pigeon drive a bus and it just made me actually imagine the thing actually taking place. This isn't the only book in the series there are also other books that were made that revolve around the pigeon and it always got me intrigued about what the pigeon could be doing the next time around.
Realistic Fiction is a genre of storytelling in which it can depict the story and characters could theoretically happen in the real world with a believable setting and situation that can resemble everyday life. These kind of books are made to be relatable towards the people that read them as well as the things that could be made up in the books are in real life or based in real life to make the kid imagine this actually happening. My opinion and reflection on this genre is that to me being able read a story that is something that could be theoretically in real life and being able to possibly relate to it is defiantly a story that I would read and be able to imagine in real life. Wonder by R.J. Palacio is a novel about a boy named August Pullman who starts middle school for the first time. Auggie has a facial difference that makes him stand out, and the book explores themes of kindness, acceptance, and empathy. Other Realistic Fiction Books: Fish in a Tree/New Kid
