When five-year-old Rory experiences some unhappy moments through loneliness, danger, and sadness, he's grateful to have his best friend, Jack, nearby to comfort and protect him. The only problem is that no one seems to see Jack except for Rory and the adults in his life don't believe Jack is real. This frustrates Rory because he knows his friend is real, but with a little help from Jack he learns that even adults have special helpers nearby to guide them; they just go by a different name. There's No Such Thing as Imaginary Friends reminds us, young and old, that we are always surrounded and loved by unseen special friends ... we just have to believe.
