Fantasy

I wanted to like this book by a beloved author more than I did. It has its charms, but they are sometimes lost in the occasional muddle of the unclear imagery & text. ( )

Cool idea, good execution except, wow, I'm getting old and the frames were just slightly too small to be comfortable reading. It was a slight struggle to read and to decipher the pictures. Not a lot, just a tiny bit too small, so that the whole thing was just a little bit too hard to enjoy.

That said, Natasha who is eleven and also doesn't wear reading glasses loved it.

Library copy. ( )

A clever, appropriately fantastical story about creatures who rescue defenseless sleeping children for their nightmares. ( )
