Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the possibility of using the book "True Story" to strengthen children's thinking. To achieve this goal, the method of qualitative content analysis in four stages of "open coding", "grouping", "categorization" and "discovery of abstraction" has been used. In general, the findings of the present study show that the book of true stories can be considered as a content to strengthen children's thinking. On the other hand, considering that the philosophy program for children is known as one of the important programs for strengthening children's thinking, the philosophical themes of the book can be matched with all approaches of the philosophy program (process, content, connection of philosophy with literature and attention to culture) for children.Also, according to the subject of the stories, one can search for the characteristics of the P4C (philosophy for children) story. These features are sometimes more vivid and sometimes less so in true storytelling. In the end, it is concluded that students 'familiarity with the main principles of these stories, such as innocence, wisdom and physical knowledge of the Imams (AS) - which is tied to the eachings of Islamic knowledge in students' textbooks - can provide a better understanding of new stories by the reader.
