A childhood belief about imaginary friends

I had the weirdest imaginary friends as a child - none of which were human.
I had a brontosaurus named Minnie Mouse, who lived by the trailer in my front yard wearing a typical Minnie Mouse outfit (polka dot dress with matching bow and heels)
I had a tiger named Mr. Muggs who wore a mailmans had. Funny, he never delivered mail...the only time I would see him would be if he happened to be walking down the street, but he was quite a dull character to talk to.
I had a tiny white mouse named Little John who wore a tiny yellow tee and red overalls. He lived in my garden and was the fastest creature 'in the world'.
And lastly, my favourite, was E.T. and brown, cartoon, moose. His size varied from bigger than my house, or pocket-sized so I could take him with me wherever I went.
I would often spend my time outside playing with E.T., making up routines (dancing and singing) like they did on Barney.
And, I really did have one human friend. Mayda. But she only existed for a day.
