The last person that answered this was not helpful, please help! Magical Realism is a fictional genre that was created in the Americas. In Unit 2, we read two examples of Magical Realism in “The Youngest Doll” and “The Third Bank of the River”. In at least two complete paragraphs (each paragraph is a minimum of 5 sentences), compare and contrast these two texts together. What do they have in common? What is unique about each text? In your answer, be sure to explain what the symbolic meaning is in each author’s use of fantasy elements. Also, use direct quotes, correctly cited, from each story to support your response.
