This book was wonderful! The people have an adventure around the world in their dreams. This whole book was interesting and I loved the pictures. The best part was seeing them go over the mountains. The hardest part was trying to read place names, like Australia and Europe. I found out that the compass rose always points north and that the legend shows landmarks that are easy to find. I did the experiment and mapped my bedroom. It took two hours to finish! I hung it on the wall so I can always find my bed.
