Customer Reviews

Great as an introduction or supplemental to other dream dictionaries

I bought this book on a whim, loving the title. It's proved very valuable -- it makes it very easy to interpret a dream start to finish. By looking up the clear ideas and instructions at entries such as house, stairs, running, car, etc., you can piece together any objects and events in your dream. It doesn't contain *everything* -- like another reviewer I'd say it would be perfect paired with a 'more traditional' dream dictionary, which is the exact stated purpose of the book, but I've done just fine with this alone for several years. Her first chapter listing basic dream types and how to process them is a little bit oversimple -- the examples themselves aren't a full explanation -- but it's a useful bonus in a book whose stated goal is to be a dictionary. I never interpreted my own dreams before but have gotten better and better at it using only this book. I've also found that the process of looking up information about my dreams has helped me remember them better as time goes on. I also like her clear, to-the-point, direct address style of writing. Fun, easy, and informative, and it's led to some real personal growth as well!

The BEST dream book ever!!!!!

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have always loved dream books but never felt fully satisfied... until now. I have been waiting for a dream book like this since I was old enough to interpret my dreams. I used to go over 3 or 4 different dream books to decipher my dreams but I finally only need one. Somehow Kelly managed to be the first person in the universe to make a genius book that covers everything in one place.

Wonderful!

I love the Introduction! I have nothing but praise for this book! I can look up dreams without being overwhelmed. Great Job! Thanks Kelly!!!

Best Dream Book I ever bought and USED!

This is the most modern dream book I have EVER seen, that uses modern day symbols and has definitions that actually make sense. I have tried a LOT of dream dictionaries, and this is the best of the lot, I got rid of my others. You won't find anything like if you dream of ice cream you'll have an unexpected visitor bring you a million dollars. Make sure you don't skip over the Introduction! There is invaluable information in there. I can't praise this book enough. For people who want to work with their dreams without being overwhelmed, this book is the answer. It's possible to go as deep as you want with this book, and also to get a good grasp of your dreams in a quick time. Thanks Kelly!!!

This Book Rocks!

This is not your typical dream book. Does it offer you a translation of snakes? Yes. Does it offer you a translation of snakes in the boardroom & in the bedroom? Absolutely! A must own.
