About This Book

A magical coach and its driver travel nightly to deliver dreams to sleeping children, aided by small angels and a team of misty horses. The volume assembles poems and short tales that follow several children on distinct dream-journeys, blending playful fantasy, fairy-tale imagery, and whimsical inventions with gentle moral contrasts between comforting dreams and occasional nightmares. Lyrical passages and illustrated episodes emphasize wonder, adventure, and consolation, creating an atmosphere intended to delight and soothe young readers.
