Setting out on an adventure with her mother, young Lila Bear's imagination begins to paint amazing, exciting picture of possibilities. In her head Lila is battling an octopus in the deep sea, driving a pair of powerful steeds before her chariot. TO those around her the world looks ordinary and routine and perhaps Lila appears not to be giving her full attention to her mission.
Then Lila and her mother meet up with Grandpa and life kaleidoscopes into something grand and greater than even before.
Pretending is so important. Imagination is our inner self opening up to our outside self with the best gifts. A celebration of the imagination and sharing the gifts from our minds that appear when we open the door and set them free.

Bursting with energy and color, this celebration of make-believe will inspire children and adults alike to imagine that--there's nothing to it!---from the publisher
