Dream by Susan V. Bosak is a daring picture book featuring the work of 15 famous illustrators, including Leo and Diane Dillon, Shaun Tan, and Robert Ingpen. All of the illustrations are beautiful and amazing unto themselves, but it is Ms. Bosaks words that tie them all together into one brilliant tapestry.

Each page takes you through a different stage in life, from exploring infant to introspective young adult, to confident adult and beyond. All are about dreams little dreams, big dreams, and everything in between.

This is the kind of picture book you collect and then buy additional copies of, so you can give it away to all your friends and family. Its really just a beautiful book and youll want to share it with all the dreamers in your life, whether young or old.

It reminds all of us of the importance of our dreams, our wishes, our hopes and desires.

This is one of the most beautiful and breathtaking picture books on the market. Each illustration brings a new dimension to the theme of dreams. It's a wonderful collection of all the different types of dreams that inspire and challenge us all. This would make a wonderful gift for anyone who appreciates art and has a very special dream of their very own.
