Where the wonder began
Somewhere between
imagination and pretend.
When Sage was four and a half, a conversation about lucid dreaming sparked an idea. If you could shape a dream while asleep, why couldn’t you “magic” things into existence while awake? She called it fluid dreaming.
Somewhere between imagination and pretend, Sage’s fluid dreaming creates wonder. These stories follow Sage and William as that wonder helps them meet the everyday challenges of growing up.
Made for reading together
A gentle rhythm
at the end of the day.
Written in rhythmic, rhyming meter, each story offers a steady, soothing beat for bedtime reading. Sparse black-ink illustrations and sharply bounded sage-green accents leave room for imagination.
Clear letterforms, generous spacing, and strong black-on-white contrast make the text easy to follow for parents, grandparents, and older eyes reading by a bedside lamp.
