Okay kiddo, have you ever read a comic book or a picture book? Well, a fotonovela is just like that. It's a type of book or magazine that tells a story using pictures and words. It’s kind of like a movie, but instead of moving pictures, the story is told using still photographs with captions underneath.
Now, these pictures are not just like any regular pictures. They look like they were taken from a movie, with lots of drama, emotions, and action! The people in the pictures are actors pretending to be characters in a story, and they are photographed in different scenes to create a storyline.
People like fotonovelas because they are easy to read, understand and it's like watching a movie in your head. Fotonovelas are also popular in Latin American countries where people love to read stories in this format.
So, next time you see a fotonovela, don't be afraid to pick it up and start reading. You'll be enjoying a fun story told using pictures, and who knows, you might love it!
