Description: Did you know that if the conditions are just right, and if you add a little electricity, or luck, or even magic, that an imaginary friend might appear when you need one? An imaginary friend like ... Fred. Fred is the best imaginary friend you could ever hope for, but no matter how hard he tries, the same thing always happens: his friend finds a real friend in the real world, and Fred fades away, bit by bit, waiting to be wished for again ... Fred floated like a feather in the wind until Sam, a lonely little boy, wished for him and found a friendship like no other. For a while, everything is perfect. But what about the day when Sam finds a real friend? Could it be that this time, something magical might happen ...?
