Descriptive statistics, t-test for dependent and nondependent samples were used for the analysis of quantitative data. The interview form was used for the collection of qualitative data, and the data obtained were analyzed using the descriptive analysis method. In light of the findings obtained from the quantitative and qualitative aspects of the study, it was concluded that use of nonfiction trade books has positive effects on the academic success of students. In the quantitative section of the study, attitudes of experimental and control groups for history lessons were measured, and it was concluded that both groups had medium level positive attitudes for the history lessons, which were similar to each other. In the quantitative section of the study, since the attitude scores of the experimental and control groups for history lessons were close to each other, it was concluded that the nonfiction trade books did not create significant effects on the attitudes of students for the course.
