Plenty of adults are asking the same question. Children in the United States devote some 40 hours a week to television, videogames and the Internet. In this new era of supercharged technology, could their imaginations be at risk? Are invisible friends losing out to Game Boys? Is make-believe a relic of the 20th century?

Over Easter weekend, officials in Benin reported that a Nigerian ferry had gone missing in the Gulf of Guinea with a cargo of more than 200 “child slaves” from Togo and Benin destined to work as maids or street vendors in oil-rich Gabon. But when the ship turned up again in Benin a few days later, none of the children aboard seemed to be there against their will, embarrassing human-rights groups that have launched a drive to fight the worst forms of child labor–which the United Nations says amount to slavery for about 200,000 West African children....
