Description

Two-time Newbery Award winner, Lois Lowry, explores the bits of life that come alive in dreams, and the darker horrors that find their form in nightmares.

Where do dreams come from? What stealthy nighttime messengers are the guardians of our most deeply hidden hopes and our half-forgotten fears? In a haunting story that tiptoes between reality and imagination, two people—a lonely, sensitive woman and a damaged, angry boy—face their own histories and discover what they can be to each other, renewed by the strength that comes from a tiny, caring creature they will never see.

Reviews

School Library Journal, Starred...
"Lowry's prose is simple and clear. This carefully plotted fantasy has inner logic and conviction. Readers will identify with Littlest, who is discovering her own special talents. . . . A beautiful novel with an intriguing premise."
