Another fantastically illustrated masterpiece by David Wiesner. This one is mystical and mythological as a boy floats from one dream sequence to another. It's a wonderful book to look at with children, pointing out all of the fascinating details.This book was selected as one of the books for the August 2016- Caldecott Honor discussion at the Picture-Book Club in the Children's Books Group here at Goodreads.Every David Wiesner book is like an acid trip...
This interesting book has illustrations but no words. I don't think it is quite as good as some of the author's other works.

1989 Caldecott Honor - Favorite Illustration: I love the boy meeting the chess pieces. Although I do not particularly enjoy the game of chess, I do love the variety and details of available chess pieces.This wordless tale shows us the power of dreams when a boy falls asleep one night. I love the way the story seems to flow from one scene to another, perhaps the same way dreams seem to flow into each other. I did also enjoy the poem on the opening flap of the book, and would have been a bit more
This amazing wordless picture book portrays the world of the diverse yet connected thoughts of children's imagination. A young boy is seen asleep cradling a book at the beginning and his dreams take him through different worlds that lead oddly yet interestingly to each other. His journey is also led by a symbolic map floating through each world as if it is traveling based on what it depicts. Weisner does a great job of transitioning the illustrations to new adventures with each page. This story
I am a huge fan of David Wiesner, his artistic style, and his many picture books. This book is no exception. I love the whimsical, wordless fantasy of the boy's plaid bedspread becoming a fantastical dreamscape of various adventures. I love the lovely watercolor paintings. The loathsome dragon even shows up in the dreamscape, as well as some pigs. I would have voted this book for a Caldecott over Song and Dance Man.
3.5 out of 5The blurb/poem on the front flap of the cover describes this wordless picturebook perfectly:"In the silenceof a dreamour adventures movein seamless progressionas we conquerour dragon,exploreuncharted lands,climbon the highest pinnacle,and floatfreedescendingin a suddenfree fallto the new day."
