The Dreamkeeper by Robert Ingpen - Hardcover - Mint
After the goblins, fairies, and witches escape the dreams of sound sleepers, it is up to the Dreamkeeper to search the world in order to find them all and bring them back to their home on the Dreamtree where they all live together in peaceful harmony.
Have you ever wondered what happens to dream creatures who escape your dreams?
What happens to all those goblins and fairies, all those witches and dragons?
Award-winning author-illustrator Robert Ingpen introduces us to the Dreamkeeper, a man who roams the dream world, capturing the wild spirits and returning them to the Dreamtree where they can live in peace and safety.
Full of details showing all the whistles, lures, and baskets the Dreamkeeper uses to track down and catch the dream creatures, this is a delightful fantasy tale, full of imagination.
Written in the form of a letter to his granddaughter and illustrated with a surreal clarity, Mr. Ingpen’s guide to the dream world is both witty and heartfelt.
