2. 2. So, how real does realistic fiction for children need tobe? I suppose I will always be asking myself when to setlimits on the reality of my stories. But I also know that I willalways write as authentically as possible in order to showreaders the places Ive been, the characters I breathelife into, and the families Ive known. This might involvesome hard times, some lousy parents, or some naughtywords, but Im just keeping it real.OCONNOR, B. (2010).
