Kids’ Comments

Dear Author,
Thank you for your stunning book. It really brought a great pleasure to me and my friends. Reading it we wholly plunged into the world of poetic imagines that you had created. It wasn’t easy to read this story in English language for us. But we did it! Now we would like other readers in Russia can get acquainted with the Dream dealer, his escort and the children: ones of them followed temptation and gave their souls; and others who tried to resist evil. We decided to take part in creation of Russian version of your book. We would like to know if you are planing to write a sequel.

I’m getting the book today and with all the comments and thoughts I WANT TO READ IT RIGHT NOW! I can’t wait to get the book.

I thought the book was very clever, it was very creative and the way it was described made me feel like I was in Finn’s position as I read it. I also could picture what Finn’s life was like from other view points and how he was very determined to find his mum if she was alive or not. I enjoyed reading The Dream Dealer from start to finish. This book has taught me that I should never give up on something that I care about.

ADORED The Dream Dealer. In fact it was sooo good I’m going to suggest it for my book group! I really liked Finn, mainly because he cared for nature and because he was just the sort of person he was – friendly, without self pity and he just gets on with things. He is one of the only boys in books that I really like! Delphi seemed really friendly. Instead of just following the crowd she stood up for what she thought is right, and I admire that.

The story line was very interesting. Especially about the earth imp and her desperation to become human; how she would knock down anything in her path to get there. I also liked that when people get something from the Dream Dealer, he in return gets something from them. I find him very clever and cunning.

To make a long story short it is an excellent book, a bit like a dream itself.

This was a truly gripping book. I started reading it and finished it the same night! The Dream Dealer is my favourite book!

It’s really good because you can’t put it down. You want to know what happens, and I don’t think that about many books.

I thought that the Dream Dealer is a very well written book! It’s surely one of my favourites! It’s full of suspense, you never never know what will happen next……I would definitely describe it as a “captivating book”.

I couldn’t stop reading this book and when I finished it I started reading it again! My favourite character is Delphi, because she was the only one nice to Finn.

The Dream Dealer rules. Anyone who doesn’t like it is unfit to read anything except non-fiction. I have a hard time telling what book is my favourite because I read so many, but this one is high on the list. When my brother read it, he looked like he was eating an Ice-Dream.
