About the book:
Llewellyn the bunny and his friends dream of many things. Some of their dreams are small, like learning to ice skate, visiting a friend, or acting in the school play. And some of their dreams are big, like going to the moon, or becoming a ballet dancer or a wildlife photographer. Their dreams feel so precious that the bunnies place them in jars for safekeeping. But when a storm comes and destroys their collection of jars, Llewellyn and his friends wonder: what's the point of dreaming if everything could be lost?
My review:
All people dream of doing special and not so special things. It seems appropriate to want to bottle those things up and hope they come true. The problem has always been, what happens when those dreams are shattered, just like in the book? What then?
I loved that that answer was addressed in this book for children. It did not sugarcoat the fact that not all dreams can come to fruition, but it did allow the dream of them. That is what is most important here. If children (and adults) cannot dream of something, hope for it, what is the point. The book makes it clear that even if something you hope for does not come through, let go of it and redream.
This book was an excellent read. The author also did the illustrations which made for a complete and wholesome book.
5 stars in a jar!
