The Dream Button

Eight Stories of the Unexpected

De: Jeannette Woodward

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

A magical button that vanquishes nightmares, an annoying ghost who helps solve a murder, a charming alien who rewards kindness with an extraordinary gift, and an irritating busybody who knows what she knows. These are just some of the alien, human, and not quite human beings that inhabit this collection.

Intriguing Short Stories

I appreciate that many of the characters were older. Sometimes it's hard to find books without a young adult protagonist. I laughed to hear one character call another a "professional gossip detective". The story, The Carnegie Ghost, inspired me to Google what a Carnegie library actually is. I had no idea. This book is definitely worth a listen.
