I Dream I Am

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.
