Definition: Themes of Fiction

Realistic fiction tells stories that could happen in real life, with characters based on real people and animals. Though the events are imaginary, the characters' actions and reactions are grounded in reality. Stories typically focus on themes involving families, cultural diversity, sports, animals, and protagonists struggling for acceptance or coping with challenges. While exaggerated at times, realistic fiction explores realistic emotional, social, and situational events children may face.
