Book Description
Following on from Sweet Dreams, published in 2010, Poppy now knows how to change her nightmares into the most amazing, magical dreams after Grandad helped her. With this new knowledge, she now must help her little brother, Henry, to overcome the same problems she once had. In Your Wildest Dreams joins Poppy as she shares her most fantastical dreams yet – not just with the reader, but with Henry too. Curiously, one night Poppy and Henry find themselves together in the same dream, on an astonishing escapade! They meet the magical Mer People, sensational creatures like the Zebrot (half parrot, half zebra) and Snakey (half monkey, half snake) and even bump into some familiar faces from Poppy’s old dreams. Woken up by the alarm clock before their dream has ended, Poppy and Henry rush to tell Grandad about how they were both dreaming together. He is waiting downstairs for them, but he appears to know more than the children can imagine about the adventures they had… In Your Wildest Dreams is a book that children can easily empathise with, creating stories from their own dreams. The book is a joy for parents to read aloud with their children, or for five- to seven-year-olds to enjoy by themselves.

Book Description
From the author of Semi-Sweet comes a delightful novel about the art of friendship, love, and (still) life. When Audrey Matthews offers an evening class in life drawing, all she's looking for is a little extra pocket money and something to fill her Tuesday nights. So she hires a model and recruits five students - each of whom have their own reason for being there. For Zarek, a Polish immigrant, the class is a welcome distraction and a place to escape his dull cafe job and noisy roommate. Then there's the handsome, mysterious James who has moved to the small town of Carrickbawn looking for a new start for himself and his daughter. He's vowed to keep to himself, but then his interest in Jackie, the class model and single mom, takes a more personal turn. While Audrey has just fallen in love -- with the adorable puppy in the window of the local pet shop. Will she be put off by the store's brusque owner or does she find out that his bark is worse than his bite? As the weeks pass, it becomes clear to the members of the drawing class that their fellow students aren't exactly who they seem...
