This magical story begins on an island far away where an imaginary friend is born. He patiently waits his turn to be chosen by a real child, but when he is overlooked time and again, he sets off on an incredible journey to the bustling city, where he finally meets his perfect match and -- at long last -- is given his special name: Beekle. Award-winning author and illustrator Dan Santat combines classic storytelling with breathtaking art, creating an unforgettable tale about friendship, imagination, and the courage to find one's place in the world. - Jacket flap.

So whimsical and sweet. The tape on the back of Beekle's crown just tugged at my heart. Can definitely see why it won the Caldecott. A few of our schools picked it as the winner, they're so excited for Beekle!
