«Confissões de um amigo imaginário» is the children's novel by Michelle Cuevas, published by Galera Júnior in paperback (176 pages, in Portuguese).
Jacques Papier suspects he goes unnoticed: teachers ignore him and at home they forget to set him a place at the table. When he discovers he is not Fleur's brother but her imaginary friend, he embarks on a moving search for his identity. Along the way he meets other children, imaginary and real, and learns the value of being oneself.
The edition is from 2016 and received the 2016 Andersen Prize for best children's book for ages 9 to 12.
