My Review
Day Dreamers: A Journey of Imagination is a beautifully written tale of make-believe complete with stunning illustrations and alluring characters.
"They say there are no dragons left and that's the way it seems. To find them you must visit the land of waking dreams"
The quote above from the opening page sets the premise for the book and the eloquent language carries readers through a land of enchantment as they frolic and play with winsome creatures in a magical dreamland.
I simply adore Day Dreamers. This imaginative tale encourages children to chase their "wondering, wandering heart into the place beyond" and the vividly detailed illustrations bring this fantastical world to life. Day Dreamers will easily captivate readers young and old.
I highly recommend picking up a copy of Day Dreamers: A Journey of Imagination.
