I Dream I Am - Hardcover

by Jonathan Meader (Author)

This delightful collection of poems and drawings about dreams is by noted artist Jonathan Meader. In each poem the dreamer is a different animal: a mighty mouse, a brave bear, a winged gopher, an elk - 14 animals in all. Beethoven Bird sings so sweetly one night that, "I knocked a rhino off his feet. He follows me wherever I go. That silly rhino loves me so." Each poem gently promotes empathy, the ability to understand and share the feelings of others. In the last poem, the dreamer is a friendly bird who is offered her or his favorite wish by a magic fish, and decides that "Most of all I wish to be the person who is dreaming me."
