Invisible Playmates


As a child I had imaginary friends so I thought this first book was a pretty cool find.


This second one has a sticker obstructing a portion of the jacket art. Luckily, the cover art matches the jacket. I love the bright yellow and red diamonds, and the little black dots where they touch.

    I love Edward Gorey. Paula, the Phoenix Commotion site looks great. Nice picture of the Texas license plate roofing shingles!

    Hey Seth, I loved reading "Secret Sunday" on your blog, The Altered Page!

    And that link to the Internet Archive is missing a ")"
