This was lovely. A fun, gentle novel about a department store that sells dreams, and only to people who are asleep in their own worlds. I loved it.

I‘m loving this book. Just the kind of lovely escapism I need right now.

I‘m about 1/3 of the way through this and I can‘t find a plot. Penny wants a job, gets a job, then experiences her job. And then seems to want nothing. A cypher of a character. There is something dark about the interplay of capitalism and dreaming and that unacknowledged darkness against the coziness of the setting is kinda odd.

I'm starting my book club book with only 4 days until we get together to talk about it. 😅 I'm pretty sure I'll finish it in time. It looks fun! 😁

In this dreamy cozy fantasy slightly reminiscent of Before the Coffee Gets Cold in its wide array of characters, a new employee is hired at a department store selling all manner of dreams. It's a truly lovely read, full of fun introspection about the world of dreams and dreamers in an imaginative new way. I'd love to visit the Dallergut Dream Department Store myself!

This was such a cozy read! We spend the majority of the novel in a fantasy realm of the subconscious, where Penny has been hired at the Dallergut Dream Department Store. We follow her as she learns about all the kinds of dreams for sale - the dream designers each create dreams of memories, adventure, fame, or healing - and the customers who come to buy them - with Dallergut as the quirky owner who must find the right dream for each dreamer

I liked this one, with a message of following your dreams. Yamaguchi‘s text has a cadence to it that flows very well for a read aloud. The illustrations are delightful. The end had me chuckle a little. #PictureBook #BBRC #LetterD

LibrarianRyan I liked this one. And I love how it has had staying power. 4mo

Clarkson‘s rhyming text is represented beautifully by the illustrations. While the text does rhyme in most cases, there are moments when the rhyme is broken throughout the narrative—I found this to be a little odd and broke the rhythm of the narrative. I did not listen to the song featured in the book, but there is info provided to listen to the lullaby. #PictureBook #BBRC #LetterR

LibrarianRyan I know there was 2 or 3 of these books. I only read 1 and was not in love with it, but I love Kelly! 4mo

Book read to Henry - I‘m aiming to read books to him until he can read books himself.
