I am a voracious reader of reviews, and this title piqued my interest when it was mentioned as a perfect addition to Poetry Month. Thankfully, our school librarian borrowed it from a nearby elementary school. A wonderful book for reading and writing teachers, this one should be known to art teachers, too. It is magnificently illustrated by fifteen of the world’s top illustrators, making the differences in artistic interpretations interesting and appealing page by page. Challenge your readers to...more
This is my most favorite book of all time! I enjoyed looking at the night stars and I love to dream. When I first saw this book, I know it would be a great book. And I was right! After the first round reading it, I just knew I had to have this book! I love the message and the illustration is just wonderful. I will never get tired of this book. Each time I read, I learn new things, but it always give me the same tinkling feeling inside. It is just wonderful! There is just no word good enough to d...more
What do you get when you negotiate a deal where 15 of the world's greatest illustrators unite, to produce a masterpiece for all ages? DREAM. Orchestrated by Susan V. Bosak And what a book it is!
We all dream, and we get caught up in them, at times lose sight, and eventually act upon them! An inspirational message for all ages. Especially for the ones who have dreamt and have been disillusioned(like SOME of us). The book has won 11 awards! Really worth reading, and most importantly rea...more

I think this book is awesome! It has so many levels and is so rich! Each page has so much meaning. The text is great, the quotes are fabulous, and the illustrations are amazing! They add so much meaning to the text. I enjoyed reading this book and would highly recommend it to anyone. I found it inspiring.
Beautifully illustrated by some of the most famous picture book illustrators in the world, this gift from my students (signed of course) is a powerful reminder of the importance of dreams. Great gift for a grad or anyone else following their dream.
Somehow this failed to "gel" with me, even though it won many awards and there are 15 lovely pictures from top illustrators, including my hero, Shaun Tan. File under inspirational (in the "follow your dreams" sense, and give as a gift.
This I think may be my "goodbye book" that is handed out at my death or leave or going home whatever. It spoke to me, I had to have it and have to give to others. Like the Alchemist, it is in me, this book.
One of my favorite books ever!! I never get tired of reading it--I always find something new. I also have loved discussing and doing activities on it with my students.
Beautiful illustrations accompany a poem about how we change as we grow. The website that goes with the book has some great resources as well.
This book contains illustrations from 15 of the top world illustrators, and apparently has won over 11 awards. It is a wonderful book -- the illustrations are beautiful, and the message both uplifting and inspiring. I liked that, at the bottom of each page, there was a dream-related quote from such greats as Eleanor Roosevelt, Martin Luther King Jr., Emily Dickinson, Langston Hughes and the like. The book also contains an appendix of sorts that describes each illustration and a short biography ...more
Children are taken on a vibrant journey of hopes and dreams. The message of this book is to pursue your dreams. The book also uses poetry and amazing artwork of 15 famous illustrators.
Beautiful pictures, inspiring thoughts. Lots of ways to use this book for writing prompts.
The pictures in this book are really fun to look at. I like the concept.
Excellent illustrations and good writing. It had the potential of being very cheesy but actually wasn't. I loved the variety because of the different illustrators.
One of the most beautiful children's books I've ever read! The illustrations are magnificent! I LOVE this book!
A book I'd share in an Art class - got a good message but also love the varied illustrations.
A great book to help us remember that it's okay to dream. We can't forget to keep dreaming.
Outstanding illustrations, inspiring message. A must for every graduate of any age.
A gift from my book buddy. You are never to old to dream.
