totallytales 's review for:
When We Got Lost in Dreamland
by Ross Welford
Plot: When 12-year-old Malky & his younger brother Seb become owners of a "Dreaminator", they are thrust into worlds beyond their wildest imaginations...
I've loved Welford's other novels so I knew I was in for a treat with his latest release. It's a remarkable tale of brotherhood, friendship & the power of dreams. Full of heart, funny & inventive it will stay with you long after you have turned the last page.
"It's your dream, Dream-boy. No one else is in charge. Just like life."
People: Malky is a little lost, struggling to find his way - it was a joy to watch him grow over the course of the book, to build a better relationship with his brother & some of the other characters around him. As well as learning to stand up for himself & the people he cares about in the right way.
Susan's Grandmother was a brilliant character and deserves a special mention here she was always kind but she made sure Malky didn't get too big for his boots.
Pace: This is a fast-paced novel, with an absorbing premise it won't take you long to get lost in dreamland, I certainly did.
Pick up if you enjoy: Sophie Anderson & Ben Miller
