Gossamer by Lois Lowry

This was a wonderful book about creatures called dream-givers...similar to the BFG (by Roald Dahl). An older, more experienced dream-giver and Littlest One lightly touch 2 humans' treasured objects, take the good memories and bestow them to a kind older woman and a troubled boy while they sleep. They have to watch out for the Sinisteeds...they sense when the boy is vulnerable and decend on him in a pack to give him terrible nightmares! The dream-givers do their best to bestow the happiest moments that help keep the humans strong. I think both girls and boys ages 9-12 will enjoy this book (maybe more girls...) RATING: ***** Lane Library Lady

    Oh come on, you mean that boys wouldn't like it? You should just say that only girls would like it.
