The Imagination of Henry Wilson

The Imagination of Henry Wilson is a forty page picture book dummy for ages five to seven that discusses a feeling of restlessness and promotes the use of imagination and visual expression to communicate one’s personal feelings and ideas. Stuck in an everyday life routine, the reader follows an older character named Henry Wilson who can’t seem to find a solution to feeling restless. Confronted by their imagined younger six-year-old self they both go on an adventure that encourages Henry to use his imagination and find joy again through being creative and adventurous.
