Kevin's Review of The Dream Eater

Christian Garrison and Diane Goode did a very good job with this book. The Dream Eater is an interesting tale of a boy who lives in a town full of people who are plagued by bad dreams. The book itself is very pleasant to read, as delightful pictures match the detailed writing fluently and perfectly. The story is calming and fun to read. It makes for a great bedtime story. Wondeful for lulling young ones to a sleep with few bad dreams.

The Favorite Book of My Childhood

In all honesty, this was my most favorite book while growing up. The artwork is complex and brilliant. Who says that chlidren's books have to have simple art? The story is sweet and simple, and made for more than one sleepful night when I was young. All in all, I couldn't recommend this book more.

A must for anyone who has ever had a bad dream!

Spectacular illustrations highlight the wonderful story of a boy whose village is plagued by bad dreams and the creature he comes to call The Dream Eater
