Ben's Dream
Chris Van Allsburg
Paperback
(Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, Sept. 1, 1997)
Ben should be studying for a geography test on great monuments of the world, but the steady rhythm of the rain lulls him to sleep, and his dream begins. A flood of water shakes his house from its foundations and sets it adrift on an around-the-world course, carrying Ben past the incredible structures that were merely pictures on the pages of his book a moment earlier.
