does
an
imaginary
friend
feel
before
he's
been
imagined?
In
Santat'ssweet,
mind-bending
gumdrop
of
a
tale,
Beekle
lives
on
a
rainbow-hued
island,
'hoping
for
his
turn
to
be
picked
by
a
child.'
Eventually,
like
Max
in'Where
the
Wild
Things
Are,'
he
takes
to
the
seas
and
soon
lands
in
the
real
world
-
which
looks
a
lot
like
Manhattan.
Though
this
island
seems
awfully
drab,
Beekle
and
his
friend
find
each
other
at
last.
She's
everything
he's
ever
dreamed
of,
and
the
feeling
is
mutual."

Book
ReviewDan
Santat
is
one
of
the
hardest
working
people
in
the
industry
today.And
while
his
immense
talent
was
always
evident,Beekletakes
his
artistry
to
a
new
level.The
story
(which
is
just
bursting
at
the
seams
with
charm)
begins
on
an
island
of
colorful
creatures,
each
waiting
to
be
imagined
by
a
special
child
and
thus
transported
to
the
real
world....
As
with
all
great
books,Beeklehas
an
air
of
inevitability
about
it.
As
if
somewhere
out
there
is
an
island
of
perfect
stories
just
waiting
for
the
right
person
to
come
along
and
imagine
it
into
being.We
should
all
be
grateful
that
Santat,
with
his
brilliant
use
of
color
and
humor,
was
here
to
bringBeekleto
life.
—The
Huffington
Post* "Santat's attention to detail in the mixed-media illustrations shares a child's eye for laughter and movement on full-bleed spreads with strategically placed text. Gazes of wonderment, broad smiles, and changes in perspective ensure an easy transition from page to page...Like Beekle's new friend, there's something here that feels just right as an "unimaginary" friendship creates a joyous, recognizable bond. A terrific addition to any library."—School Library Journal (starred review)
"Beekle (a crowned white gumdrop of lovable cuteness) lives on a fantastic island with other creatures "waiting to be imagined by a real child." After seeing his companions leave, one by one, Beekle loses faith that he will ever "be picked and given a special name," and so he does "the unimaginable" and ventures forth to find his friend...Welcome, Beekle. It's nice to know you."—Kirkus Reviews
"This story would comfort children looking for new friends and would also encourage children to reach out to someone different."—LMC
