What happens when you bring user-centred, data-driven product management techniques to bear on the creation and iteration of ‘imagination products’ such as stories for children? In turn, what can product people learn from the imaginative techniques used by story tellers? Why is it that only a water princess can defeat the pasta monster? Nick will use his experience creating bestselling children’s books at Lost My Name to explore these questions and more.

- 23. “The Journey Home and The Little Boy Who Lost his Name are my son's favorite stories. He is 5 and thinks they actually happened to him because they are about him. That being said he is very upset that his robot friend Hubble doesn't come visit and play. I tried explaining it was a story and that made it worse because heaven forbid that Hubble his robot friend isn't real. The attached picture is the result of me trying to explain why his robot friend Hubble doesn't come visit. He still loves the books but is super upset when Hubble comes up because he wishes his robot friend would come over and play and have lemonade. Maybe the book should have the option of coming with a stuffed Hubble to cuddle and read together?”
