Books with title Sam O’Riley and the Dream Catchers

"All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them." – Walt Disney"Reality leaves a lot to the imagination." – John LennonSam O'Riley is by all accounts a typical middle-schooler living in bustling Chicago. He has never met a ghost. He's never prowled around graveyards, been chased by killer clowns, or soared without wings. All Sam knows is that a long grueling school year cannot compare to summer break in Chicago. But all that is about to change when he closes his eyes one night . . . when he discovers what lies behind each of us when we dream . . . when he finds the Dream Catchers.It all starts on the worst possible night – the first night of summer break when his whole life is changed by a young woman who is already dead. Deep inside a dream, Sam is thrust into the impossible, into a mystery that turns his idea of reality upside down. He is shown that life is much more than what we see, that when we dream the mind escapes the body and everything becomes connected; past and present, living and dead. But among the abundant wonders and unlikely friends he finds along the way, he also learns that good and evil are at war and that he is but a pawn.Despite being told to keep secret what is happening to him at night, to hide what is a mystery even to him, Sam must rely on his friends Joe and Nancy to help keep him sane and safe from the terror that has followed him into the waking world. But as he plumbs Chicago's unusual history, ghost stories, demons and dangers for a solution, Sam learns a difficult truth and a great purpose begins to take root in his life . . . if he can survive long enough to fulfill it.So be warned. This story is not about witches, wizards or wands. This story is not about everyone living happily ever after either. This story is about what’s already in the room with you and unseen. This story is about them.Whether you enjoy ghost stories, mysteries, or Chicago history, discover what dead people already know . . . dream with your eyes wide shut!Keywords: ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective ghost stories ghost story Chicago mystery detective

Beautifully written and exciting. The Secret Garden meets Diagon Alley. Fabulous!"Alexandra Vere, Harrogate"My son has just read the first three chapters and thinks it's brilliant - high praise since he has very decided opinions about what he reads."P. Uglow, Harrogate"I really liked the book. It was a bit scary when Dotty found herself in Uncle Winchester's private study. But most of the books I read are a bit scary so that was okay. I would read the other books in the series. Go Team Dotty!"Betty, age 7, Amazon"Enchanting, innocent and lovely with just the right amount of modern technology...a great read for a grown up 7 year old! She loved it... When is the next one coming out?"A. Little, Amazon"I read the first chapter [of DOTTY and the Chimney Thief] to the children tonight and they were instantly back to being as gripped as they were by the first book. They both laughed out loud at the wonderful descriptions of Gobby in the kitchen covered in flour (again) and the way she asked Kenny to remove Geoff! They cannot wait to find out what happens next."J. Johnson, Stallingborough
