The Imagination Factory "There is no machinery at The Imagination Factory, and smokestacks don't pollute the air. Instead, we teach children and their caregivers creative ways to recycle by making art. Recycling is one way to minimize or lessen the amount of trash we have to throw away. When we recycle, we make a new product out of waste materials. This process helps save natural resources like trees as well as landfill space and the money needed to get rid of trash."

The Neverending Tale "is for kids and kids-at-heart.
It is a choose-your-own-path adventure story- like you might read in a book. But you can add to the tale where ever you like. Whatever you add will become part of the tale, anything you can think of.
The tale will change and grow over time- as other kids like you follow your story and write new choices. You can see that it's not just a story, it's also a game. And like any other game, there are rules to understand before you start...."

Cyber-Seuss! "I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, it's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do, and that enables you to laugh at life's realities.''-Dr. Seuss
