The second book of the trilogy, following Maps of My Emotions, explores the many forms that shape a child's imaginary friend. Most children have an imaginary friend at some point during their early childhood. They can be fantastic or real; they can be human, animal, or inanimate; but most of all they are an expression of creativity, a base for developing social skills, and a stimulus for emotional growth. So how does an imaginary friend come into your life? Go on this fantastic journey to discover the infinite varieties of imaginary friends. Each page takes readers inside the realm of creativity, with illustrations teeming with details to create your own imaginary friend. And once you have formed your true friend, the journey is not over! Follow along with the protagonist as he learns how to feed and nurture his friend, to give him a house, to take care of him, and, of course, to spend time together, as friends do. Encyclopedia of My Imaginary Friends is perfect for young readers eager to explore their interior worlds. Children from all over the world can share their imaginary friends to The Museum of Imaginary Friends website (www.museumofimaginaryfriends.com) creating a virtual gallery to visit over and over again.
