    • Abstract:
      The article examines the potential of using literature to strengthen students' understanding of history and explore research-based pedagogical strategies for the study of history in elementary and middle school classrooms. Historical fiction introduces students to characters with different viewpoints. Teachers can help the students question the interpretations of the past offered by a single book.
