Fiction is a popular genre due to its various characters, settings, plots and subjects. One of the controversial subjects in this genre is the approach of authors to children and adolescent’s environment in recent decades and its effect on the fiction. In this research the content of 411 children and adolescent’s stories, written by 20 eminent writers of the area and first published in the 70's, have been qualitatively and quantitatively analyzed, in order to examine the urban settings and its features and the degree to which the writers are influenced by the reality of Iranian society. The results of this study have proved that the city, as the principle environment of 200 stories and one of the described settings of 31 stories, and with 56 percent overall, is the first environment in the children and adolescent’s environment of the 1370's. In the formation of the urban settings, three elements are influential: first the writers' tendency to create realistic stories, second their tendency to describe the lives of the lower social class, and finally the difference between the time of writing and the time the stories took place.
