Description

Set in a fantasy, reimagined India where dreams can be captured and bottled and nightmares used against you, Mimi Malou and her dream creature Lalu must defend her Citadel as it is under threat again?

After foiling the plot to poison the King of Ratnagar, Mimi ensured that her home, the Citadel of Dreams, remained a place of gentle healing and dream making. But the peace of the Citadel is threatened again when it is struck by the dark and dangerous Night Curse. Dream creatures are being poisoned and are attacking their humans, leading dream hunters being stuck in unwakeable nightmares. When Mimi’s dream creature, Lalu, and her mother are affected she and her friend Rafi must travel to the Himalayan Mountains in order to find a cure and stop an old enemy who has returned for vengeance?

A gorgeous magical adventure full of wonder, perfect for fans of Natasha Hastings, Zohra Nabi, Sophie Anderson and Anna James.

Praise for Dream Hunters: 

‘The most imaginative and riveting interpretation of dreams and nightmares for children since Roald Dahl’s the BFG.’ Piers Torday.?

‘Each page twinkles like a star in the night sky.’ David Solomons?

‘I simply couldn’t stop thinking about it.’ A.F Steadman ?
