Lots of people have requested this feature.
Let me know how you would like it to work. :D

minimap. top right corner.

Maybe a transparent map in the top right corner that shows the shape of the island and were importantant things are located such as the shops, carcters, the tower of love, etc..

It would probably work better if the game is fullscreen. Or at least a bit bigger.
A good mini map would probably take 1/4 of the height and 1/5 of the lenght of the current screen.

at the top right/left corner, with special features like: "invisible" (map is gone, but a small button there can be used to get it back) a few buttons like:
Special people: Shows you, Peach, Coriander and Pete on the map.
Creatures: shows all workers and enemies.
Forests and mountains: shows all trees and hills.
Buildings: Shows all buildings (shops, ToL, Church, Creature houses, sawmills and mines)
Flowers: shows all flowers.
Fruit trees: shows all fruit trees.
and finally: Decoration: shows all decoration.
(so you can choose to only see island, everything or something in between)
the items will appear small, but the same sieze as the islands have been shrinked to.
oh, and you should also be able to click the mini map to get a bigger map, (covering the whole screen) which shows more details.

Pretty much what Dragon said. Not much to add. Make sure you can hide it and make it bigger. Upper right corner seems to be the best place for it. Maybe a small circle on the lower left corner of the map that you could drag around to change the size.
The map would be cooler if it was like a mini-zoomed out view. Also another idea, if that would be too hard or processor intensive, would to be to use dots or symbols for the items.

top left with minimize button, and a button that lets you move it around, it has a filter system with NPCs, Buildings, Islands, Resouces, Events - (Stuff that ghost bunny says in bottom left), enemies, and ubbles.

Enimies show up along the sides of the screen
true but sometimes they are on the top right and since you are more north than east they look like they are straight to the right.

I agree with what Dragonbunni said that may be the best idea.
Or even a link would work. Like when the Ghost Bunny says that a Fox ate the last flower or that it mined the last rock. There could be a link directly under it for us to click that way we go directly to the area.
