I usually deal with fairy tales by pointing out that kids can learn
about a culture by comparing fairy tales and I'll reinforce this by
using the different Cinderella versions. I also talk about the oral
tradition to explain how fairy tales traveled around the world. As for
art books, I explain that they are "how to" books.

Subject: Teaching the Dewey
This is my first time to post a question. I am hoping
that someone can help me with this. I have always taught the
students (k-5) that the books with Dewey numbers were
non-fiction and never have had a problem getting this
across to them. Dealing with fairy tales, drawing books, and
graphic novels have not been a problem. But the students
now cannot seem to deal with them not being "true" books.
Can anyone help me get this across to them? Thank you for
your help.
