Book Synopsis

As a young girl finds solace in her toys, a turtle sets off on a mission to deliver dreams in this comforting tale of parallel narratives told in spare text and lushly detailed, luminous illustrations.

Beyond the city and over the sea is a forest of dreams. At the edge of the forest lives a turtle--the Dream Keeper. In a small boat, the turtle sets off on a tumultuous journey to deliver dreams to sleeping souls nearby. Meanwhile, a young girl, scared by the nighttime shadows in her room, finds consolation in her toys . . . but cannot sleep. While their stories unfold side by side, the girl and the turtle must each harness their courage and overcome their fears as their worlds intertwine in the most wonderful, magical way. Brimming with glowing, dreamlike scenes, Anna Walker's picture book is a visual sensation that articulates the boundless power of inner strength and will offer companionship and reassurance for young children as they drift off to sleep.
