Produktbeschreibung
The small daughter of an Australian opal miner has two imaginary friends, Pobby and Dingan, who disappear when the father is accused of poaching another's claim. Her brother then attempts to find Pobby and Dingan to save his grief-stricken sister. A Book Sense 76 Pick.
This enchanting tale is at once a beautifully rendered narrative of childhood loss and a powerfully simple fable about the necessity of imagination. Pobby and Dingan are Kellyanne Williamson's best friends, maybe her only friends, and only she can see them. Kellyanne's brother, Ashmol, can't see them and doesn't believe they exist anywhere but in Kellyanne's immature imagination. Only when Pobby and Dingan disappear and Kellyanne becomes heartsick over their loss does Ashmol realize that not only must he believe in Pobby and Dingan, he must convince others to believe in them, too.
