In the most thorough attempt to cover all aspects of children's
make-believe, Dorothy and Jerome Singer examine how imaginative
play begins and develops, from the infant's first smiles to the
toddler's engagement in social pretend play. They provide
intriguing examples and research evidence on the young child's
invocation of imaginary friends, the adolescent's daring,
rule-governed games, and the adult's private imagery and inner
thought. In chapters that will be important to parents and
policymakers, the authors discuss television and the imagination,
the healing function of play, and the effects of playfulness and
creativity throughout the life span.
