About This Book

A kindergartner describes Figler, a very real imaginary friend.

Our Review

This gentle picture book offers young readers a tender glimpse into the vivid world of childhood imagination through the eyes of a kindergartner who introduces us to Figler, his very real imaginary companion. The narrative captures the authentic voice of a young child, making the concept of an invisible friend feel both magical and completely believable. Parents seeking stories that validate creative play and emotional development will appreciate how this book normalizes the experience of having a make-believe friend while celebrating the innocence of early childhood. The simple yet profound storytelling provides a wonderful opportunity for conversations about imagination and friendship.

What makes this story particularly special is its ability to bridge the gap between fantasy and reality without ever dismissing the child's perspective, treating Figler with the same seriousness that the young narrator does. Children who have their own imaginary companions will feel seen and understood, while those who don't will gain insight into different ways of playing and thinking. The book's strength lies in its respectful portrayal of childhood imagination as a natural and valuable part of growing up, making it an excellent choice for bedtime reading or classroom discussions about creativity. This heartfelt exploration of imaginary friendship will likely become a cherished favorite for families navigating the magical thinking phase of early development.
