What I Dream I Can Do

What happens when “I close my eyes and take a rest”, or when they meet the tender, encouraging eyes of another? The special possibility of me is set free in What I Dream, I Can Do.


What I Dream I Can Do is a captivatingly illustrated ‘time in’ for children and adults alike, and a kind reminder of our uniqueness and value as beings.

Children are experts at ‘being’ and when we’re in their company, it doesn’t take long to catch the energy of their joy in doingjust that! Their curiosity and appreciation for everything they can see, hear, taste, touch and feel, is palpable. This affirming picture book enters a child’s world of bottomless wonder where big feelings are distilled into small words, and where the lilt of rhyme gives rise to shared delight and dreams.
