Types of Literature

Fiction stories are based entirely on factual events.

Non-fiction literature aims to entertain rather than educate.

Drama is a form of literature that is performed to bring stories to life.

The setting of a story refers to its emotional tone and thematic depth.

Characters in a story can include animals and objects, not just humans.

The theme of a literary work is usually straightforward and easily interpreted.

The plot of a story is defined as the emotional experiences of the characters.

Poetry utilizes language in creative and condensed forms to evoke emotions.

All genres of literature share the same elements such as plot, characters, setting, and theme.
