I think Katherine Paterson wrote 'Parzival' to entertain people. It does not give any information on medieval times, so she didn't write it to inform anyone. It also doesn't try to persuade us readers, so it cant be written to persuade. == ==
Her son's 8 year old friend Lisa Hill was on at the beach one day and got struck by lightning. His mom decided to write a book to help him cope with his grief which we now know as Bridge to Terabithia. She based the river and many of the events in the book on what happened in her son's life and some of her own. I hope this answers your question.
