and tells true events in a way that reads like a story.

chronological, order. Ordering events this way helps readers
understand what happened and when.
• Texts about events that happened in the past include real

people and may include quotations from them, or details
about their thoughts and feelings.

• Narrative nonfiction can include visuals, such as illustrations,
maps, and diagrams.
