I think this is a good idea, but there are also animal books that are 
fictional, so that could be another addition. Take care.

  I would like to suggest a category. Books that are about current events, 
public affairs or government--these sort of run together at times--are 
classified as simply nonfiction or history. Something that happened a short 
time ago is history, but I don't think of yesterday's news headlines that way. 
I'm wondering if a new category could be added.

  Secondly, the categories are in no particular order and I have noticed that 
books which are fiction may also have, for example,  a history designation 
because they are set in the past. I think of history as nonfiction. I was 
wondering if the categories could be classified under nonfiction and fiction 
categories. For example, mysteries, science fiction, romance and such would be 
under literature and fiction while animals, sports, travel, textbooks and such 
would be under nonfiction.
