Night Garden: Poems from the World of Dreams

28 pp. | McElderry | February, 2000 | Trade ISBN 0-689-82617-6 $$16.00
(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Julie Paschkis. Fifteen brief poems explore the fertile ground of the unconscious, a world in which "dreams grow wild / like dandelion weeds." The verse mostly forsakes the nightmarish or unsettling to focus on dreams that are peaceful, mysterious, and often surprising. Small, full-color gouache illustrations contrast with monochromatic backgrounds depicting fanciful images evoked by the poems.
