Memoirs of an imaginary friend / Matthew Green

When you were little did you have an imaginary friend no one else could see? This book is written by one of these imaginary friends and it was fantastic. Budo is the imaginary friend and Max is his imaginer. He is in danger, and Budo has to try to rescue him, despite his limitations in the real world. You believe totally in Budo and the other imaginary friends he meets, and the way the book ends is exciting and scary, though ultimately happy. I wasn't sure I was going to like this book, but a comment by Jodi Picoult on the cover encouraged me. It said: 'You've never seen a book like this before.' And it's true.  And along the way you get to think about what is real, and what death means and how to be a good friend. I recommend this book highly.

Who would enjoy this? This is a terrific book so if you want a good story with some interesting twists, you should enjoy it.
