The Catcher

Toast? Dream-deck? It didn't exactly sound like the most inviting idea considering the last dream he had woken up from propelled him into a secret world of talking upper-crust rats friendly green frog-people and lanky strangers trying to poison him with cubes of cyanide. The Catcher is a fantasy/adventure novel for middle-graders set in a land beyond the Bermuda Triangle where nightmares are reality. Someone has kidnapped the Sandman and it has fallen upon the scrawny shoulders of teenager Jack Masters to set the sleep world right. Together with a blonde super-spy and toffee-nosed rat he must venture out in search of the mysterious Drake and a father lost.
