What Do You Imagine ...? is a unique book that encourages children (and adults) to embrace their imaginations, in a fun and exciting way.
"My kids love this book! We've read it countless times and each time they come up with alternative ideas for each 'shape'; their imagination has truly grown as a result. Bravo and thank you JAC!" Emma Twigge, home-school mom.
"My students go wild for these books. It's almost like the books have taught them how to exercise their imaginations and as a result they have begun to look at the world in a different way." Steph-Ellen, Primary Coordinator.
A NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR ...
As the great Albert Einstein himself once said …
“Dude, imagination is far more important than passing standardized tests...”
Ok, fair enough, he didn’t quite utter those exact words, but I do think he would have had a lot to say about how creativity and imagination are being stamped out of some schools these days, and are superseded by test preparation…
Children’s minds, when encouraged, are an abyss of creativity. They have an imagination that we as adults can only dream about. It breaks my heart that such creativity is not always being celebrated as it should.
So I’m hoping my book ‘What Do You Imagine…?’ helps your child (and of course you) to embrace the right side of the brain.
So here’s the story...
What I have done is draw a very simple shape. It’s up to you and your child to look at the shape and simply imagine what it could be. You then turn over the page and discover what my imagination told me it was. No answer is right or wrong. You will notice after a while, once your imagination is ‘warmed-up’, the ‘game’ gets easier and more fun! After all … imagination is like a muscle, the more it works out, the greater it becomes!
Enjoy.
