...imaginary friends are lost. Set in a mining town in the Australian outback, Pobby and Dingan features characters who are all looking for things--missing friends, a mother lode of gems--that seem impossible to find. A movie version of the novel was filmed last year, and producer Lizie Gower says that by the end of the shoot, the imaginary characters had taken on a life of their own. Crew members set places for them at the table and bought them lollipops. The 11-year-old actress who plays Kellyanne kept company with the characters off camera, her own imaginary...
