If you do post it on facebook, word the title in away to pose a question to those who read. Maybe parents who may see the post may wonder is it good for their kids to imagine fantasy worlds or for a teenager to ponder on is it good to focus on fictional stories.

The library link for the book is http://search.lib.byu.edu/byu/id:byu1071527 and I think you could use it for your paper. It talks about childhood imagination and how it could develop into a long-term adult creativity. Hope this helps!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17667121939379889453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2854424785114020340.post-87509803065339813432014-03-20T13:49:40.837-06:002014-03-20T13:49:40.837-06:00I like your question!

But, fantasy is still where my heart lies. I wonder if I needed the magic during my childhood, and conversely, I wonder if I need the reality for my adulthood. Good luck with the rest of your analysis!Sophiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12333180424215967945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2854424785114020340.post-78797295226059118162014-03-14T13:52:30.421-06:002014-03-14T13:52:30.421-06:00I asked the question of "why do you read?&quo...I asked the question of "why do you read?" to my friends and a majority of the answers were to get away, have an adventure and take a break from reality. I think stories give our mind a chance to stretch. It's a creative exercise that allows our minds to be able to return to reality more able to cope with the unexpected. Stories are a vacation, some TLC for our mind.<br />... then again, all things in moderation right? When a book is finished, put it down. Reflect on it, but don't seek to live in it.Chalene Longshorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15860932885588331788noreply@blogger.com
