Chocky

Matthew's parents are worried. At eleven, he's much too old to have

an imaginary friend, yet they find him talking to and arguing with

a presence that even he admits is not physically there. This

presence - Chocky - causes Matthew to ask difficult questions and

say startling things: he speaks of complex mathematics and mocks

human progress. Then, when Matthew does something incredible, it

seems there is more than the imaginary about Chocky. Which is when

others become interested and ask questions of their own: who is

Chocky? And what could it want with a eleven-year-old boy? A story

of innocence and alien contact, "Chocky" is a sinister tale of

manipulation and experimentation from afar.
