There's 'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland'. It's full of fictional characters and strange happenings, like Alice shrinking and growing. However, it can also make children think about facts such as the concept of size perception. And 'The Chronicles of Narnia' series. It's a fictional world of Narnia, but there are elements related to moral facts, like loyalty and courage, as well as some references to real - world concepts like monarchy in a way that can be educational for kids.
Well, for one, it helps kids develop their imagination. The fictional parts let them dream and create new ideas in their minds, while the facts ground them in reality. For example, in 'The Magic School Bus' books, the crazy adventures are fictional, but the science facts they learn are real. Another benefit is that it makes learning fun. Kids are more likely to remember facts when they are presented in an interesting fictional story. Like in 'Aesop's Fables', they remember the moral facts because of the engaging fictional tales.
It can expand their knowledge base. Fact - based parts teach real - world information like animals, history. Fiction parts fuel imagination, like magical creatures. This combination broadens their thinking.
