Estes, Thomas H.; Vasquez-Levy, Dorothy – Phi Delta Kappan, 2001
Stories create opportunities for readers to consider values that guide human action in both the imaginary context of a tale and the real context of their lives. Stories provide insight, but never closure. Students who read both novels and textbooks score better than those reading only one format. (MLH)
