Visionary or Imagination?

[MaryBurris]

Do you think that Sarah was a visionary, or do you think she just had a real good imagination?

I think she had to have been a visionary, in order to have learned the skills that she needed, such as throwing.

[Ashiyya Tariq]

She was both visionary and imaginative. Her strong will power and struggle makes her visionary and the soft corner of her character makes her imaginative.

[Mary Garrison]

I think in the book it was portraying her to be going magically to another world. So I don't think it was imagining.

[kandscreeley]

Yeah. I don't think it was imagining either.

[Job Njoroge]

To have a vision you have to imagine it so I think she was both

[gali]

I think she actually experienced it, too. I liked the inclusion of magic in the book.

[Amagine]

I think she really did see a vision. There are some things you just can't make up even with a good imagination.

[Mallory Whitaker]

I'm going with what others have said and saying both. I do think it was a vision, but I think for her to get to the point of having one, and her eager acceptance of its truth afterwards, means she had an imagination too.

[Doaa Wael]

Great question! I think vision and imagination go hand in hand. But I believe you start out with imagination, once you let it free and never try to stay inside the box, you start to develop as a visionary and extend your horizon with a tinge of love for exploration and curiosity. I think that was her case and that is why she seems like both.

[Acwoolet]

I would say that she had a little bit of both.

[Lest92]

She needed to be susceptible to fiction for that vision to be so realistic to her.

[Amagine]

To have a vision you have to imagine it so I think she was both

That could be possible as well.

[MrsCatInTheHat]

It seems to me that she experienced the stories she shared; they were too real not to be true.

[prenaramesh]

It seems to me that she experienced the stories she shared; they were too real not to be true.

Yes, I agree. And there was a lot of detail as well which I don't think a thirteen-year-old could have just imagined.

[Mindi]

I believe she experienced the things she described in some way. It may have been partially imaginary, but everything she saw had a purpose.
