Summary
Children ride and glide in boats as they adventure through their dreams. From Marco in the Andes who sails through the constellations and greets Mighty Viracocha, to Kaia in the Northwest coast, who floats near the shores of Haida Gwaii and adventures with Eagle, Orca, Grizzly Bear, and her Grandmother, to Ivan in St. Petersburg who sneaks between the bony legs of Baba Yaga, "Dreamboats" takes readers into the dreams of children around the world, dreams that are filled with family and legends, culture and love. Written in lyrical prose by Dan Bar-el with gorgeous evocative art by Kirsti Anne Wakelin, this is a book to be treasured by generations of dreamers.
Excerpts
I don’t have naps. I have adventures.
I don’t sleep in a bed. I ride in a Dream Boat.
You have your very own Dream Boat too.
Close your eyes. Untie the moorings.
Then push off from shore.
Water is memory. Water is dreams.
Clear or mirror, deep as sleep, water flows inward
and Dream Boats follow.
Take me, Dream Boat, and show me everything I know.
I don’t sleep in a bed. I ride in a Dream Boat.
You have your very own Dream Boat too.
Close your eyes. Untie the moorings.
Then push off from shore.
Water is memory. Water is dreams.
Clear or mirror, deep as sleep, water flows inward
and Dream Boats follow.
Take me, Dream Boat, and show me everything I know.
