Realistic Fiction Book

The Kissing Hand


Author: Audrey Penn

Illustrator: Ruth E. Harper and Nancy M. Leak

Publisher: Tanglewood Publishing, 32 Pages

Genre: Realistic Fiction

This book means the world to me, and it is a very cute book for any age up until middle school. This book is about how Oscar the Raccoon is nervous about going to school and his mother kisses his hand and says something every child needs to hear to keep them going. What does the mother raccoon say to little Oscar? Did he end up going to school? Read to find out just how sweet and cute this book is!

Description of the illustrations: In the Kissing Hand, Ruth E. Haper and Nacy M. Leak put so much detail into each page. From the little raccoons to the scenery, this book has amazing artwork and fits the theme perfectly. I especially love the cover where it shows the mother raccoon kissing Oscars' hand in the moonlight.

 The Magic School Bus: Dinosaurs Before Dark Author: Mary Pope Osborne Illustrator: Salvatore Murdocca Publisher: Random House Books for Young Kids, 176 Pages Genre: Historical Fiction I have always loved the Magic School Bus series. There are many books that have different adventures in all of them. There is also a series you can watch. This book is about how Jack and Annie find a mysterious treehouse and before they can find out what it is, the treehouse transports them to a historical place. Will they find their way home? Read to find out! Description of the illustrations: The illustrations in this book are outstandingly drawn out. Every drawing makes the scene come alive and show exactly what adventures they go through to get back home. The details put into each aspect of the whole book shows just how much time Salvatore put into each and every page.
