Dream Bearer

<p><strong>Printz Award winner Walter Dean Myers deftly draws a compassionate portrait of a boy's odyssey of self-discovery and the acceptance and empathy for others he learns along the way.</strong><br/></p><p>David doesn't know what to make of his father Reuben. His older brother Tyrone says Reuben is crazy. But Tyrone is acting like someone David doesn't know anymore.</p><p>Then David meets Mr. Moses a mysterious man who tells him that dreams might be the only things we have that are real. And it is Mr. Moses' gift of dreams that gives David a new way to see inside his father's heart.</p><p><em>I wonder what kind of dreams Reuben has. When I thought about him dreaming I thought of him having a storm in his head with lightning and far-off thunder and the wind blowing big raindrops and a bigger storm coming just down the street just around the corner like a monster waiting for you. I thought Reuben dreamed of monsters that scared him.</em></p><p><em>They scared me too.</em></p>
