Jonathan Thompson's imaginary friend is a program designed for
preschool and pre-kinder-garden child development. Children
will learn the importance of tolerance, perseverance, honesty, teamwork,
self-discipline and positive thinking.
While learning, they will discover Mr. Winners and his friend Goober is odd, clumsy, awkward, funny but warm personality carriers a charm only a mother could love. Mr. Winner teaches and demonstrates no matter how clumsy, awkward and funny looking, that everyone is and can be a winner.

Through this interactive presentation, children will learn the importance of
tolerance, perseverance, honesty, teamwork, self-discipline and positive thinking.
