Within this warm-hearted story about finding your place in school, Invisible Dogs is a wonderful celebration of imaginary play which will delight all those who already enjoy it while also inspiring others to begin to do so.
At home Ida is busy and happy. Her favourite thing is playing imaginary games with Grandpa. But at school she becomes shy and silent as she finds it all too noisy and busy. Clever Grandpa comes up with an idea to help her. Soon Ida begins to take her own friends to school: two imaginary dogs!
Looking after the two dogs gives Ida plenty to do in the playground and what’s more she finds out that there are other imaginary pets there too! Ruby Wright captures both the real school environment and the imagination of the children perfectly.
