It's weird. I didn't particularly like this book at first. The illustrations are not appealing to me, and the text is entirely shrug-worthy and filled with odd choices. Here's the thing though: Whenever it's story-time, my youngest girl grabs this book. She takes her time looking at the pictures, and we talk about what she sees. Other books of this length she impatiently turns the pages of before I can even finish reading, but this one really engages her.

This book is all about dreams. It is about Sigmund's farm and what his animals are dreaming about. This book would help children with fluency because it rhymes. In the end, it moves focus from the animals and talks about Sigmund's family and what they are dreaming about. All in all, this is a very cute book.
