    On the Spine of our library books, what does a non fiction book have that a fiction book does not?

    • Numbers

    Correct Answer
    A. Numbers
    Explanation
    Non-fiction books typically have numbers on the spine, such as call numbers or Dewey Decimal numbers, which help organize and categorize them in the library. Fiction books, on the other hand, do not require these numbers as they are usually organized alphabetically by the author's last name. Therefore, the presence of numbers on the spine is a distinguishing feature of non-fiction books.
