I am a journalist who is writing copy for our library's new brochures. We want to talk about its children's mascot, a big walking book named Booker.After 2 days on the Web searching for information on how children bond to mascots (why do they like them, how strong is the attraction,that type of info), I've decided either I'm a techie idiot or it isn't out there.Can anyone point me in the right direction? (Of course, any experts on the psychology of mascots in this group would be welcome, too.)
