We all read something every day from newspapers, magazines and many other publications. We spend a limited time on these, as we are reading the newspaper in the morning while sipping our first cup of coffee for the day, or a magazine article during some of our free time.
When I was a child. I anticipated to learn reading just for fairytale that mother was reading for me before the bedtime. When I grew up , I knew those stories called fiction.
Fiction and non-fiction works have differences and similarities as different kinds of literature. They can best be compared and contrasted in many ways. We can discuss them for their meaning, differences, similarities and examples
Fiction and nonfiction meet in a point where they both major kinds of human literature. They both have the same audience. They are mostly written materials.
They’re both stories that have characters and emotions. They’re both interesting. the fictions simply are materials in which the events and characters are imagined by the author . On the other hand, works of nonfiction are meant to be factual. The main purpose of fiction is to entertain. It gives the reader a theme, moral or a lesson. It must be read in order. Whereas the nonfictions inform the reader and give directions for something and it must be read in order. In nonfiction the pictures is always realistic. It could be read with any order
Examples of fictions are plays, stories and poetry. Examples of nonfictions are :
Newspaper stories, journal articles, textbooks, legal documents .
After comparing and contrasting fiction and nonfiction, I think I prefer nonfiction, because, they are more enjoyable to read.
