Genre ~ Realistic Fiction ~ This is a different kind of book, but still a great example of realistic fiction. Because there is more than one story, there is more than one main character and the plot and setting keep changing. Nonetheless readers are able to relate and jump into the story. The book requires them to probelm solve, which can be beneficial in their daily lives. The more practice the better one becomes.
